Sculpture and Experimental art
This camp is all about experimentation. What is performance art, and how can we use it to express a vision? Where do artists come up with ideas? What is your big idea, and how can you translate it into a work of art? Campers will experiment with clay, wire, found objects, and wood to create sculptures inspired by works at the High and their own big ideas.

Art and design are best friends. Explore the relationship between the two by looking closely at overlapping themes in our collection. How do you build a brand? With good design! Campers will look closely at typography and how it is used in art. Students will also use digital media to create a logo inspired by a work of art and learn how to create repeating patterns.
