Interdisciplinary in nature, the programs are a rich resource to explore local and national art and culture from the eighteenth century to the present.
Join the Gibbes Museum of Art for creative fun and exploration, from summer camps and workshops to birthday parties. Work with practicing artists and museum teachers to create your own fantastic artwork, explore the permanent collection, and discover exciting temporary exhibitions!
We offer a range of camp sessions every summer that satisfy a variety of interests and age groups. Classes for our youngest students include hands-on activities and games in the classrooms as well as tours of the galleries. For our older students, classes incorporate sketching in the galleries, behind-the-scenes access to Collection storage, and hands-on studio work. For more information and dates check our event listings.
