July Outside the Lines Click here for an update from Outside the Lines Art Studio!
We recently traveled through time and space in Art Through the Ages Camp. We began in pre-historic times with cave paintings, skipped around through ancient Egypt and Greece, visited the Italian Renaissance, French Impressionism and Pop Art of the 60’s, and even snuck some Basquiat and Kandinsky in for good measure! The highlight of the week was our visit to to see some of the art we learned about in real life.
Hello July! The studio will be closed this week for the holiday, but Open Studio marches in beginning Saturday with Hanging Gardens. Plus, it’s Christmas in July all month long in the Creation Station! How fun to make a snow globe in the middle of Summer!
