Summer 2023 Summer Art Camp and Art Study

Art Camp emphasizes learning through direct observation of art and thoughtful activities. We are especially excited to focus on the exhibition Robert Motherwell: Pure Painting for the 2023 summer season. Distinguished area artists design and lead art activities that encompass everything from artmaking in the traditional sense to interdisciplinary exploration.

Art campers spend time in the galleries and on the grounds exploring the art and architecture, followed by time in the museum studio where they work with two artists each session. The last day of camp ends with a reception and exhibition of the campers’ artwork to celebrate their creative accomplishments with family and friends. Campers make exciting discoveries concerning art, the world, and themselves through Art Camp at the Modern.
