Art Camp emphasizes learning through direct observation of art and thoughtfully designed activities. For the 2026 summer season, we are especially excited to focus on works from the special exhibition Rashid Johnson: A Poem for Deep Thinkers. Distinguished local artists design and lead art experiences that range from traditional artmaking to interdisciplinary exploration and lots of fun!
Art campers spend time in the galleries and on the museum grounds exploring art and architecture, followed by sessions in the museum studio where they work with two artists each week. The final day of camp concludes with a reception and exhibition of campers’ artwork, celebrating their creative accomplishments with family and friends. Through Art Camp at the Modern, campers make exciting discoveries about art, the world, and themselves.
Scholarships available. *The scholarship application link will be available on Friday, March 27.
