Our Elevated Art Around the World camp wrapped up last week, and what a fun week it was!

The kids got to explore different types of art from all over the world. They made African-inspired masks, sculpted Day of the Dead skulls out of air dry clay and even built their own piΓ±atas from scratch.

It was a week full of hands-on creating, learning about different cultures, and just having a great time together. Check out these photos of their creativity in action!
