  Drawing is its own category of Art, but it is also the foundation for all others! In this hands-on Drawing Camp, we will use a variety of techniques and media. We will learn and review the basics of how to create a successful drawing, such as the Elements of Art. Then, we will practice creating full-fledged drawings with these techniques using the great outdoors, our pets, found objects, and more for inspiration. Finally, in an open-studio style drawing environment, the instructor will guide students as they create artwork based on their own inspirations.

  Yoga is an ancient practice known for improving flexibility, but did you know Yoga can also improve cardio health, agility, and strength? (You may even see professional athletes practicing Yoga before a big game!) Yoga is so much more than just physical, though - we will also learn techniques to reduce stress and engage in mindfulness. Students will be able to apply what they learn to help them at home, school, and with friends! You will need comfortable workout clothes, a water bottle, a positive attitude, and an open mind.
