Registrations are now being accepted for the Summer Art Academy offered by the Stephen F. Austin State University School of Art. The two-week camp will meet Monday through Friday, June 18 through 29. Students in kindergarten through sixth grade may enroll in classes that include drawing, painting, photography and sculpture.
“The academy offers an exciting introduction to the visual arts and an immersion into specific media,” said Gary Parker, SFA art instructor and director of the academy.
Classes are arranged by approximate age and will meet from 1 to 4 p.m. in the Art Building on Wilson Drive. The students’ work will be exhibited at 5 p.m. Friday, June 29, in the Art Building. Afterwards, students may take their work home.
The registration fee, which is $160 if received before May 20, includes all art supplies, refreshments and exhibition expenses. After May 20, the cost is $175. Registration information is available at www.art.sfasu.edu or by calling the School of Art at (936) 468-4804.
“We encourage parents to register their children early since enrollment is limited to ensure personal attention and instruction,” Parker said.
