Summer Camps
Half-Day Camps for Rising 7th – 9th Graders
Each summer, members of our arts faculty host a one week, half-day camp, aimed at giving prospective students an experience on campus, sampling a high school elective course. This summer, we are offering five camps: Visual Art: The Art of Making Worlds, Digital Art. Fashion, Printmaking, and Music Performance Ensemble. All camps will be held the week of June 8 – 12, 2026. Pair 2 together to make a full day!
Summer Camp - Visual Arts - FULL
by: Johnny Walker
- Price: 300.00
Visual Arts Camp is taught by Griffin Art Director Johnny Walker, Art & Storytelling: Heroes & Monsters, and Everyone in Between!
In this week-long art class we will explore stories, with a focus on characters. We will draw, write, paint, sculpt, and discuss our characters as they develop within the stories that we create.
There are all kinds of characters within stories - good ones, bad ones, and the ones who are somewhere in between. These “in-betweens” are usually the most interesting. Over the course of the week we will try to figure out what makes an engaging character and how the stories we tell often have a lot to say about the world we live in.
