Fieldtrip to the SB Museum of Art

Drawing a Sculpture by Yinka Shonibare MBE

Discussing Roman Portraits


ArtVenture Camps are taking place at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art's Ridley-Tree Education Center at McCormick House, a beautiful former mansion about 5 blocks from the Museum.
Every Tuesday we take all our campers for a walk to the Museum where we tour the galleries guided by knowledgeable docents and campers also get to draw in front of original art work.

10 weeks of Summer ArtVentures Camps for Kids start this coming Monday, June 15!

Jungle Tableau, 2008
One of our favorites projects from last summer!
After learning about Leonardo da Vinci's "Last Supper" each group created their own interpretation of it as a Tableau Vivant, designing masks, assembling outfits, painting a background a la fresco into wet plaster and then finally posing for the audience at our Friday Art Show!
