Summer Art Camps kick off next week, and there’s still time to jump in. If you haven’t snagged a spot for your kiddo yet, now’s the time to swoop in—some camps are already packed, and the rest are filling up faster than a paintbrush in a glitter explosion. You definitely don’t want your child missing out on the creative chaos. And guess what? We still have a few scholarships up for grabs.

Splash into summer with clay, creativity, and a whole lot of wheel‑spinning fun.
In this camp, you’ll learn how to wrangle a spinning wheel, center a lump of clay, and turn it into something awesome — all while laughing with friends and discovering your own artistic style.

We’ll play with bright glazes, try out cool techniques, and build up a mini‑collection of pottery that’s totally you. Think vases, bowls, mugs, plates — plus whatever wild ideas you dream up along the way.

It’s messy. It’s creative. It’s summer. And it’s going to be a blast.

Instructor Jennifer Jones (Yes, the same Jennifer Jones who teaches art at Little Mountain Elementary) is bringing a fun week of printmaking to NAC. This camp is all about color, curiosity, and making a mess on purpose! How much fun does that sound?! Printmaking is like magic art — you make a design, give it color, and then press it onto paper to make a print! You can do it over and over, each time making a new copy of the same design, but each one is still special because it comes from the same original idea. Sign your child up for this exciting week and watch the magic happen!

Get ready to dig into creativity! In our Backyard Garden Art Camp, young makers will dream up whimsical worlds filled with fluttering butterflies, secret hideaways, colorful blooms, and all the magic a backyard can hold. With a wide range of mediums - drawing, painting, collage, mixed media and big imaginations, campers will plant ideas, watch them grow, and turn them into vibrant works of art. It’s a week of wonder, mess‑making, and pure creative joy. Get your child signed up for this exciting week of camp while there is still space available! https://www.newberryartscenter.com/service-page/in-our-backyard-garden-mixed-media?referral=service_list_widget

How amazing is this! And Tim Davis Timdaviscreations is spending a full week teaching summer art camp at the Newberry Arts Center!
Tim has been a professional illustrator and published author for more than 30 years. He’s also the most prolific Hidden Pictures© illustrator in Highlights magazine history—creating over 600 illustrations. He’s even taught workshops for Highlights to train other artists in the craft of Hidden Picture creation. And now he’s bringing that talent to NAC. If your child loves drawing, storytelling, or grew up loving Highlights, this camp is a perfect fit. Sign them up at: https://www.newberryartscenter.com/classes

This will be my first one-man show since college graduation. After all, I'm an illustrator (I don't usually frame my work). But with the help of several Highlights magazine friends—I'll be hanging some 350 hidden objects (in about 28 illustrations).

🌿💙 Fiber art and indigo magic are back at NAC 🌿💙
South Carolina fiber artist and educator, Kristy Bishop, is returning to the Newberry Arts Center for another wildly creative week of weaving, indigo dyeing, and hands-on fiber fun. Campers will fold, twist, scrunch, and tie their fabric into all kinds of funky shapes before dunking it into vats of magical, blueberry colored indigo.
And then comes the best part: when the fabric comes out, it’s GREEN. Yes—green! But as soon as it hits the air, it transforms into a deep, beautiful blue right before their eyes. It’s science, it’s art, it’s magic… all at once.
Campers are welcome to bring pre-washed personal items to dye—think T-shirts, yarn, bandanas, or even colored fabric they want to over-dye. Items must be made of natural fibers like cotton, linen, silk, or wool so the indigo can work its magic. (Sorry—no canvas, towels, or sheets. They’re too big or too thirsty for dye!)
