Camp at Anna Banana

Federal Holiday & DCPS Day Camps
FULL-DAY art camps 9am-3pm for Ages 4-8

Federal Holiday/DCPS Day off art camps at Anna Banana are a fun and relaxing art time in the studio. Bring two snacks (one for morning and one for afternoon) and a water bottle.

We start the morning with free draw with markers, pencils, crayons and pens. After everyone is settled, we start an art project focused on an artist such as Picasso, Monet, Alex Katz or Wayne Thiebaud to name just a few.

Clean up, break for snack and then outside time across the street at the Jelleff Field for running around, games and blowing bubbles. Back to the studio for pizza lunch (provided).

Art project #2, another outside time/trip to the library/ or art gallery, afternoon snack, clean up, story time. Games and puzzles and dismissal at 3pm. The time goes quickly because we are busy and having arty fun!
