Let’s take Art, Outside the Box! In the outdoor-based art camp, students will find inspiration, examples, and even materials for their art projects! This camp will stretch the scope of art far outside of the classroom.

This program is perfect for those young artists that have a passion for both the outdoors and for creating unique and beautiful art. If you loved Explore, Create, Play, try Art Outside the Box!

Valley Voyagers is a program for those with an elevated sense of adventure and a healthy curiosity for the world around them. During this camp, voyagers will spend their days primarily outdoors, diving deeper into the social, cultural, physical aspects of Crested Butte. We will get hands on with artifacts from Crested Butte’s history, create plein air art masterpieces, and survey (and play) in rivers that run through the Valley. Everyday is a new day to explore and learn! This program is perfect for older elementary children who have enjoyed Explore, Create, Play in previous summers!

Explore, Create, Play is a camp for those looking for art and adventure! During this camp, students will spend the majority of the day outdoors, whether painting plein air at the park, exploring the wild beauty of nearby trails, or creating art from outdoor materials.
