Ages 10 – 13

In-person at The Lovett School

Join us for a week of artistic discovery!

This camp experience will immerse campers in the captivating world of urban art, providing insights into murals, graffiti, public sculptures, and interactive art installations.

Campers will not only gain a deeper understanding of the power of art in the public sphere but also have the chance to unleash their creativity by designing their very own artwork.

Through a blend of fun activities and practical learning, campers will gain hands-on experience with real-world tools like map reading, drawing building plans, sketching, robotics, and model building.


Campers will learn to:

  • Explore the profound influence of art and culture on city design and community identity.

  • Gain hands-on experience with various tools and materials to create public artwork.

  • Engage with guest speakers from the fields of art and culture, gaining insights from experts in the creative world.

  • Campers should bring a water bottle, snacks, and lunch. Lunch will also be available for purchase at the Lovett cafe.

  • Campers are welcome to bring their laptops or tablets during the camp. If needed, MODA can provide campers with a laptop.
