SUMMARY:Camp Danger Week 2 at the VAE Studio\, Ages 8+\, August 8-12\, 2022
DESCRIPTION:Both Weeks of Camp Danger are SOLD OUT with full waiting lists. \nBoth Weeks of Camp Danger will follow the same curriculum with some alteration.  \nTo the Parents: The only screen-time your camper will have at Camp Danger is with a hammer and screwdriver in hand\, taking the screen apart or maybe even smashing it. Your camper will learn how things are made by disassembly and by creating something new from something old or discarded. With supervision\, they will take risks\, learn to be safe while using sharp tools\, power equipment and forging iron. Campers will be taught how to safely and correctly use these tools\, and once they demonstrate responsible use\, they will earn the right to use them to create pieces of art. \nTo the Campers: At Camp Danger\, we’ll be swimming every day at Lake Paran\, go “creek walking”\, make and throw wooden spears and forge iron hooks. We’ll have a visit from someone doing very a dangerous thing\, make fire pits\, cook a lunch\, take discarded appliances apart and create new sculpture machines. We’ll drill\, whittle\, hack\, saw\, sand\, hammer\, burn and most likely blow something up. \nInstructed by Matthew Perry\n10am-4pm\nAges 8+ \n

Materials explored include drawing from the start to get your ideas down on paper\, then choosing from plaster\, wood\, mixed media and paints to complete the piece. Natural materials will be used as we also utilize the outdoors as our studio. \nInstructed by Ann Webster-Lang\n10am-4pm\nAges 6-9 \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:Artology\, Ages 6-9\, July 31-August 4
DESCRIPTION:This week sees campers engaged in mind-bending activities. They’ll be experimenting and creating like they never have before. They’ll make things that fly\, float and may never come back. Ever make an edible print? Or paint plant graffiti? What about driving a printmaking machine? How about creating messges outside that only appear when it rains? Explore optics in a walk- in Camera Obscura and make your own custom camera out of anything from a Pringles chip can to a giant cardboard washing machine box. Investigate ways to make something hidden in plain sight. Design optical illusions and make drawings with secret messages and decoders. Test and bottle your own brand of invisible ink! We’ll do all this\, and make time for swimming at the lake! \nInstructed by Rhonda Ratray\n10am-4pm\nAges 6-9 \nBuy Tickets
