JULY: Art + Nature with Jen Bayer

Details

Ages 8–12 (3rd–5th grade) Led by: Jennifer Bayer Step into the outdoors and discover how nature becomes the ultimate art supply! Make Art With Nature is a hands-on summer camp where young artists explore creative processes using plants, soil, fibers, sunlight, and found natural materials. Through foraging, experimenting, and playful making, students will learn how artists throughout history have created pigments, paper, prints, and sculptures directly from the natural world. Each day introduces new materials and techniques while encouraging curiosity, collaboration, and creative expression. Campers will build skills in observation, design, and craftsmanship—and end the week with a joyful outdoor art show to celebrate their work. *Day 3 we'll meet at the Dye and Pigment Garden at Riverview's SOIL Lab to pick flower and plants for printing.
