This shark themed day at Art Zone’s Summer Art Camp centers on creativity in two mediums, with participants designing a shark on canvas and crafting one in clay. Camps welcome students ages 5 and up, with options for full or half days and the convenience of early drop off and late pickup available for an additional $5 each. The cost is $40 for a full day or $25 for a half day, and multi day discounts are offered, with three full days for $110, four for $155, and five for $175. Those who attend five full days in the same week also receive time on the pottery wheel. Pack a sack lunch and let Art Zone know about any allergies. Throughout the week, themes also include axolotl, manatee, whale, dolphin, a flamingo clay project, and a squirt gun paint fight.
