Visual Arts  

KlezKamp features a workshop setting for the arts classes, a space where students can work on their projects at the times of their choosing and at their own pace while art classes are going on or in the evenings. Instruction, resource materials and supplies will be available as needed. Demonstrations and slide shows will be offered. Bring along your own projects and tools, as well as materials to share. Work completed in the arts workshops will be shown in the traditional exhibit at the end of the week.
