Summer is just around the corner which means soon your kids will be home with you all day. To keep your kids entertained…and out of your hair, here's a breakdown of the different summer programs at The Montpelier Center. Whether your child has a flair for the arts, is hoping to learn or just wants to revel in the great outdoors, there’s a camp to keep your child occupied this summer.
ART SUMMER CAMPS
Grab your sunglasses, passport, and away we go! Scuba diving the seas in search for sunken treasures to make a stained glass and mosaic server of your favorite shimmery sea life design. Surf through the sunny sand in search for island gems and jewels to string your own tropical treasures. Next stop, fly to the content of your choice to mix it up with collage, paint, and printmaking, as you design and build your own suitcase and produce your own prints. Before your return home, sculpt with model foam your tastiest treats and trinkets to make a life time of memories.
Art Show is Thursday, June 13 @ 1:00 PM |
Grab your looking glass and go on a mission to discover some of our world’s magic and mysteries. Walk through a forest of wonder and scavenge through assorted materials for a collage, sculpt a home for a gnome using mysterious materials, and investigate the mystical colors of stained glass used in castle windows. Our mission isn’t done yet! Capture the magical beauty of a sea creature painting with sand, sea glass, shells and assorted adorned ornaments from the mysteries of the beyond.

We are going to put CREATE in the middle of Re-create-ion this summer! We will have games, snacks, and child-directed fun between art projects. For impromptu creative play, various props, sidewalk chalk, journals, watercolor pencils, bubble-makers, and small water squirters will be available. Campers will sculpt and glaze a fairy/gnome home out of clay adding small living plants and flowers to its landscape, paint bisque pottery pieces, design clay pendants/keychains, and a personalized clay dish. It would be a good idea to bring a change of clothes, just to be on the safe side.

For impromptu creative play, various props, sidewalk chalk, journals, watercolor pencils, bubble-makers, and small water squirters will be available. Campers will make a mosaic project using personal items from home or the provided shells, glass beads, and trinkets. They will experience making creations from paper mache and string and designing a pressed flower resin piece. It would be a good idea to bring a change of clothes, just to be on the safe side.

When your child is interested in musical theater but does not know where to start, send them to the Montpelier Musical Theater Camp.
