Nuts and corks; sticks and flowers; glitter and glue. Mix well and then sprinkle with stories of fairies and goblins, of gnomes, unicorns and dragons. Combine lots and lots of creative juices with the mixture and steep for four days. Voilà! Make room for mystical creatures and their dwellings full of natural elements, loose parts, clay, and colorful textures your camper will bring home at the end of the week. Come play, explore drawing, painting, sculpting and printmaking and create in the land of the fantastic.

This camp is for the students, whose doll or any tiny creature they adore is in need of a beautiful place to live.
We will start by customizing our plywood houses to meet individual needs of campers' dolls, tiny creatures, superheroes, fairies & monsters. After all - none of us is alike. Each camper will paint and decorate their house by making wallpaper, artwork, furniture, and more. We will paint, print, build, sculpt and stretch our creativity muscle to see how we can up-cycle everyday objects to create one of a kind teeny-tiny houses.

All materials are included though campers are encouraged to bring their special materials if they want to add this special touch
