Art and science make fun partners as youngsters learn to see animals through the eyes of an artist. Our professional art teacher balances guided art instruction with individual creativity. Each day participants will meet an interesting animal, perhaps visiting the animal's bedroom or getting close enough to touch it, then work on a wildlife art project to take home.

Sign up for one or two weeks of fun (free T-shirt included)! Classes also include a fun and educational camp show in the auditorium. Program runs 9 a.m.–3 p.m.

Program fees:

$201 for members, $231 for nonmembers.
Extended-day option (7:30 a.m.–5:30 p.m.): $285 for members, $315 for nonmembers

If your child has a special need, please call 619-231-1515, ext. 4142, and ask for the Little Artists coordinator. We partner with Kids Included Together, Inc.® to provide a fun and safe experience for everyone.
