SafeArt’s annual youth summer camp is open for registration! This year camp will focus on building skills in creative arts and community connection. With hands-on classes led by local artists, young people will have the opportunity to build skills in printmaking, natural dying, ceramics — and more! No need to come with any expertise in the arts, for SafeArt it’s all about exploration and providing camp participants with the opportunity to try new things. Time in nature, quiet meditation, journaling and sound baths will also encourage young people to build and explore their own toolkits for emotional regulation during these challenging times.
Each day young folks will practice building community and nonviolent communication tools by setting their own camp norms with support of trauma-informed adult supervisors. SafeArt encourages camp participants to make decisions as a group, as well as healthy decisions for themselves; making our summer camp programming perfect for young people of all backgrounds. SafeArt invites middle and high school aged young people to join us for one or both weeks of joyful rest and resilience in June and July!
