The Science of Art Summer Camp - 2024
May 28th - June 28th, 8am to 5pm
The Science of Arts Summer Camp at the African American Museum will engage students ages 8-15 in the creation of art projects through the lens of science, problem solving, and research of African and African American history. One six-week comprehensive camp will be offered. To guarantee maximum and high quality learning, enrollment will be limited to 50 students. Students will develop skills that support their academic growth and learning goals such as team building, strategic thinking, project planning and execution. Three central objectives of The Science of Art Camp are to provide an environment where young people can discover and utilize the resources and collections at the African American Museum; to connect the imbedded principles of science, technology and art of cultural identity and expression; and to create and launch the Science of Art blog to interact with their peers throughout the Diaspora providing information, art work, original stories and news about their work that connects them to young scholars and artists worldwide. Scholarships are available.
