SUMMER ART DAY CAMP
at the First Night Monterey Studio

A Creative Exploration of Art and Making
Six Sessions in June and July

Archer Park Community Center
542 Archer Street, Monterey

Your child is in for a wonderful, creative week at First Night’s Art Camp! They’ll be immersed in drawing, watercolor, painting, and sculpture-making. Plus, each camper will create a unique self-portrait to take home. Makers sessions, targeted for older students, can include maker projects: cooking, felting, sculpture, yarn art.

At the end of the week, we’ll celebrate your child’s creativity with a special art show on Friday afternoon from 2:45 to 3:15! Each young artist will set up their work, with one piece beautifully framed and others thoughtfully displayed. Family and friends are welcome to join us in honoring their artistic journey!

Your child will enjoy plenty of supervised playtime and lunchtime, and endless opportunities for self-expression. Led by professional artists, this camp fosters a collaborative and exciting group experience. While there is no one-on-one instruction, every activity is designed to inspire creativity, confidence and teamwork! It’s a week of fun, imagination, and artistic exploration!

No previous art experience is needed! This camp is all about fostering your child’s creativity and self-expression. Our focus is on building imaginative, creative young minds — not just young artists. Every child is encouraged to explore, experiment, and enjoy the creative process!
