Spring Arts Camp

Unleash your inner artist and explore Rome at our magical art camp during spring break! Dive into the wonders of Rome through three creative workshops brimming with fun and learning:

Architecture: Create an Elegant Roman Bath House: 9-10:00am

Ancient Rome was famous in its time for vast and elaborate public bath houses. Built using millions of terracotta bricks, these buildings featured fine mosaic floors, decorative statues, and marble walls. Join artist Laurie Witzkowski to make a model of your own Roman bath house, and create a calming bath infusion from herbs. 

Puppetry: Toy Theater & Tall Tales: 10:05-11:05am

Gods and goddesses, Monsters and minotaurs! Learn some of the most famous stories of Roman mythology from Julie Boada. Then create a toy theater stage and puppets to retell your favorite Roman tall tale, and perform it for your friends and family! 

Masks: Carnival Follies: 11:10-12:15pm

Since the middle ages, the celebration of Carnival in February has been a chance to don a disguise and dance in the streets. Roman masks are famous for their fanciful designs and sparkle. Artist Gustavo Boada will share some of the traditions and designs of this most colorful holiday of  the Roman calendar. Then create your own gorgeous mask for future celebrations.
