Summer!

Summer is in Full Swing!

Whew! What happened to that last few months? We have been very busy around here at MSAC. We are already in our fourth week of art camps, and so far they are running better than ever!  We have a great line up of art teachers that are using their creative minds to come up with some pretty awesome art projects for the kids.  There are some great camps coming up in the next couple weeks that are still open for enrollment. Cartooning, Printmaking, and Superhero Art for Ages 5-7. Printmaking, All About People, and  Manga for Ages 8- 10 are some classes that still have spots (Click here to check it out)! 

Fabric Storyscapes from earlier this summer-How stunning are these? 

Possibly the most exciting part of Summer is getting to see the familiar faces of students that have been coming to our art camps for years. I had a student that has been coming since she was at least 5 and now she is old enough for the 8-10 year old camps. I found an old picture of her in a camp from years ago and shared it with her and her mom last week. How wonderful a feeling to be able to watch the kids grow up from year to year!

Art Show at Crescendo Espresso Bar!

Last semester, MSAC worked with the Boys and Girls Club on Allied Drive along side their art teacher to bring them some new and exciting art experiences. Their hard work is currently on display at Crescendo Espresso Bar on Monroe Street! It looks great, and the students at the Boys and Girls Club are thrilled to have their artwork displayed.

Open Art Studio

Don't forget about Open Art Studio during the week- Perfect for run-over art camps, or for a break from the heat for a few hours. We offer Open Art Studio from M-F from 3:30-5:00pm and Saturdays from 1:00-2:30pm. Each class is $12, or $48 for five classes with the Open Art Studio Pass (buy four, get one free!). We do some pretty fun stuff in Open Art, and just geared up a new bin with some fun project ideas filled in it. Call ahead to let us know you'll be there! 

Claire's Event

The Claire's Event date is set! It will be Sunday, August 25th from 5:00pm-8:00pm. 
There will be face painting, art activities and and art show. Claire's Fund is a scholarship fund which awards funds to MSAC music and art students in need of financial assistance.  Great fun for a great cause! Check out more information on the Fund, as well as the event.

We hope everyone is having a great (and creative) summer!
