Kids Art Camp 2023

Pankratz Arts Exchange is ecstatic to be offering its third annual youth arts camp held for ages 5-14 years! 

For 4 full days your kid/s will explore many art forms, such as music/movement/yoga/meditation/somatics/drama/poetry/journaling/painting/mixed-media, and more! All led by our highly experienced artistic team and with the helping hands of our “youth buddies” (our highly energetic PAE performers) assigned per age group. 

At the end of our final day (Thursday) @ 2:00 P.M. the kids will be able to share their art work/demonstrations with family and friends. Our camp theme this year is Going Green! as we individually and holistically take care of our eARTh, because EARTH without A-R-T is just "EH!."
