Kids explore Fiber Craft & Wearable Art!
Monday through Friday
June 23 – 27 from 1pm – 4pm
Ages 7-12 years welcome!
Wearable Art Summer Camp is all about exploring fiber arts and the wide world of wearable art!
Does your child have an interest in fiber arts and learning macramé, embroidery and creating fun wearable art? Make original pieces of wearable art – lockets, pins, patches and more. This program fuses personal expression with design for daily use. Each week we’ll explore a new kind of wearable object, working with wire, fabric, shrinky dinks and fabric paint. Students will leave with a range of unique pieces and the fabrication skills to create or re-imagine their closet.
In this fun week, kids will explore STEAM principles through:
*Learning the science of upcycling through lots of traditional–and untraditional–mediums,
*Exploring traditional techniques using needle & embroidery floss to create patterns,
*Making original pieces of wearable art–lockets, pins, patches and more,
*Taking a fun dive into the arts via lots of cool craft mediums,
*And, applying conceptual math to macramé, the visual art of knots!
This camp is recommended for kids ages 7-12 years.
