Let’s celebrate Spring Break with a fun morning creating art!

The theme of this one-day mini-camp will be centered around books.

Inspired by our latest exhibition, LeUyen Came Along: The Art of LeUyen Pham, participants will learn about the illustrative art and books that LeUyen has created in her long career.

Some classics you may recognize include “Vampirina Ballerina,” “The Princess in Black,” and “Itty-Bitty Kitty-Corn,” and more!

Children will get to create everything from a bookmark and collage to their very own book.

This camp is for children kindergarten through fifth grade.

Registration required.

Members: $60 | General Public: $75
