Are you ready to get out in the sunshine with your paints, pencils, or pastels to create a plein air (French for open air) painting? Teens will spend the week creating lively landscapes featuring MAG’s gardens and sculpture park. Each day will center around a different drawing or painting medium, allowing campers to experiment and find their favorites. The week will end with an art show on Friday in MAG’s Vanden Brul Pavilion, where families can view campers’ creations. All art materials are included.
