Young artists will dive into the exciting world of cityscapes and urban design in this hands-on camp! Campers will explore how art transforms the spaces around us through projects inspired by architecture, 3D modeling, and design. They’ll create imaginative buildings, vibrant paintings, and playful sculptures while learning about how cities are shaped by creativity. Through fun activities like crafting 3D city models and experimenting with bold colours and textures, campers will discover how to capture the essence of a city—its energy, people, and stories—not just through buildings but through art that interacts with its surroundings. Young creators will learn how their designs can inspire connection and bring their artistic visions to life in exciting ways.
