TEEN EXPERIENCES
STUFF & STITCH
Join us for a week of sewing skill building! In this camp you will learn the basics of hand and machine sewing, and get the chance to apply those skills to making an adorable plushie of your choice. You will learn a few hand sewing stitches that can be used for seaming, hemming, and repairing clothing and plushies. You will also learn how to use a sewing machine, how to follow sewing patterns, and get resources for making future plushies. By the end of the week, you will have made a plushie of your own to take home and have transferable skills you can use for other sewing projects! All of the supplies for this class will be provided. We have sewing machines you can use, but if you have a personal machine you would like to learn how to use, feel free to bring it!

SOLAR SURGE: THE DYE LAB
Forget the classic blue-and-white. We're blowing cyanotype wide open.
In this week of half-day sessions, you'll use the actual power of the sun to create bold, one-of-a-kind prints in a full spectrum of colors - reds, purples, oranges, greens. You'll learn the chemistry, experiment with layering and resist techniques, and walk away with pieces that are genuinely, provably yours.
No experience needed. Just show up ready to experiment.
JULY 6-10
FIRST FIRE: A CLAY EXPERIENCE
First Fire is a week of half-day sessions inside a professional ceramic studio — where you'll get your hands dirty learning both hand-building and wheel throwing, experimenting with form, texture, and glaze, and walking away with pieces you actually made. Whether you've never touched clay or you're ready to level up, this is your chance to work like a real ceramicist in a real studio.
No textbooks. No grades. Just clay, a kiln, and whatever you can dream up.
