This unique camp will explore how science can be used to make beautiful art, as well as explore the myriad ways in which beauty can be discovered through scientific observation and experimentation. Girls will create custom pieces of art using various scientific techniques and learn the why behind each process. Creating our own paper, making our own clay, mixing our own dyes, ink, and even make-up using minerals are just a few of the projects we’ll be exploring! Come explore and create with us!
Our camps are open to ALL girls entering Kindergarten-8th grade, so bring a friend and enjoy a Monarch experience! For general camp questions, email summercamps@magnoliaschool.org
