Urban Skye Kid's Art Day Camp
Looking for something to do with your artistically inclined elementary or Jr. High child?
“My six year old daughter said, ‘It was the funnest thing ever!’ My seven year old said it was, ‘Way better than school!’ Both have asked if they can go back this year.” -- Mother of two
“Our daughter, age 6, attended Urban Skye’s Music Camp for a week. She had a great time, and learned about music in a fun, easy environment. She was excited to go every day and we were very happy with the mix of music, vocals, outdoor play time and fun at the camp. The cost was quite reasonable as well. Highly recommended! “--Parents in The Highlands
"We thought he'd like it and admit we were a little surprised he LOVED it. Christy made him feel like a world class photographer with a natural eye so he spent the rest of the summer trying to prove her right, much to our delight. Urban Skye's Kid's Art Camp was as much a gift to our son's parents as it was for him!" --Parents of a wiggly 9 year old boy.
At Urban Skye Art Day Camp, we are committed to creating a summer art program that stimulates and enriches your child’s imagination with a wide variety of techniques and materials. Our teaching staff are trained experts in their fields who will help expand your child’s horizons with caring and patient instruction.
Music and Vocal
An imaginative and hands-on introduction to singing jazz, pop, and funk music. We will tackle the three disciplines of great singers: listening, doing, and creating. Using games, stories, body motions, and art, we will learn good vocal technique, listen to great singers of the past 50 years, and also try on the ins-and-outs of singing funk and jazz, including a fun introduction to scat singing. Singers will have the opportunity to collaborate on a group composition to be performed at the final showcase. No experience is necessary for this workshop, but it is open and appropriate for young singers of all levels. It’s going to be a week of song, imagination, and positive explorations into music-making!
For Grades K-2nd & 3rd – 5th (Have been to Kindergarten but haven’t been in 6th grade.)
Photography
The difference between taking a good photo or an average one is knowing a few simple guidelines. In this class we will have fun:
- learning the art of composition
- becoming familiar with the different modes and settings the camera can offer
- creatively capturing portraits
- discovering how everyday objects can become the unexpected by looking for natural patterns and textures
- In addition, we will touch upon basic photo editing and organizing tips for your collection of favorite shots.
For Grades 6 - 8 (Have been in 6th but haven’t been in 9th grade.)
Fine Art
This week we will explore the basic elements of art and design by creating fun and imaginative art pieces that will become a part of your families memories. We’ll do this through the use of paint, paper, collage and found objects just to name a few. Your young artist will learn to create without fear of judgment in order to have fun and discover more about themselves.
For grades K-2nd & 3rd – 5th (Have been to Kindergarten but haven’t been in 6th grade.)
Drama
We’ll explore drama through playing improvisation games, memorizing monologues and learning to listen to other actors on stage. Your child will walk away having had fun, having learned new theater skills and being more confident in themselves.
For grades 6 - 8 (Have been in 6th but haven’t been in 9th grade.)
