Get Creative this Summer

Summer Art Camp at the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey helps campers take advantage of the wellness benefits of art-making, including boosted self-confidence and improved social and emotional well-being, all while providing a fun and creative camp experience. Ten weeks of creativity will feature projects in painting, drawing, fiber arts, digital art, sculpture, jewelry making, ceramics, printmaking, and more!

Don’t miss out on sending your child to one of the region’s most popular camps! In 2023, our Summer Art Camp for Kids was almost entirely sold out. Campers love our art camps because of the fun, relaxed, and creative atmosphere at the Art Center, and parents love giving their children the wellness benefits of art-making, which include boosted self-confidence and improved social and emotional wellbeing. Individual class sizes are small for maximum instructor and counselor attention.

Our 2024 kid camps will feature two new camp themes as well as new art projects in our classic camp themes. Every week, kids will work on both 2D and 3D art projects inspired by the weekly theme in media that may include painting, drawing, sculpture, and mixed-media. Tween artists ready to graduate to the next level of Art Camp will explore art media and techniques in greater depth during two daily studio sessions. Our talented teaching artists will guide tweens in developing their own personal style while they learn and refine their art skills.

Teen campers ages 13+ will gain an in-depth studio art experience that engages their creativity and enhances their skills. Each week, teens will concentrate on two focus areas during their studio sessions. Small class size enables our talented teaching artists to take a deep dive with teens to build their techniques and individual styles.

Camper Ages: 5-18 years old
Camp Type: Traditional Day Camp, Art, Design, and Making
