Camps
We have large tables to accomodate students with space around them. Masks must be worn at all times when in the stuido. We know that masks mandates have been lifted but because we have many students that are under 5 and unvaccinated, we are still requiring masksin the studio.
We are continually watching and accessing the situation so things may change soon. We will also be going for walks and have our lunch outside picnic style. Our camps are limited to 14 kids per week so that we can offer plenty of room at the tables. We have added an air filter in the studio to help keep the air clean.
If someone in your family is exposed to the covid 19 virus or exhibiting and ill symptoms in the days before camp please let us know and we can work our a credit or partial refund.
All of our teachers have been vaccinated.
We will be having both snack and lunch outside and be taking walks around the neighborhood sometimes collecting materials for art projects.
