For Kids

This popular program filled quickly. A group of children celebrate their spring break from home with Agnes art educator Emebet Belete as she guides campers through creative activities using the technique of collage and other mixed media processes, using supplies provided in the Agnes Art Kit.
Looking ahead, our Agnes Art Camp at Home happens throughout the month of July.
