PRE-TEEN CHill & TEEN NIGHT
creative hangoutS just for you!
Join us for special weekend events for ages 10+ - Meet new friends, make art, play board games, relax or take time to work on your own projects in a calm environment.
PRE-TEEN CHILL: Ages 10-12, 1:30 - 4:30pm
TEEN NIGHT: Ages 13-17, 5:00 - 9:00pm
ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT:
Art Camp 504 is a full-time art studio, and we ask all participants to move calmly indoors at all times. This keeps our community safe and protects students’ artwork. We have a fenced in courtyard for student who wish to take play breaks outside during the event.
These events are designed for students that are looking for a calm, mature space to work on art and meet other students with shared interests. If a student is having a hard time remaining calm inside the art studio, they will receive a series of reminders and may be asked to wait a season before returning.
Our camp dogs Ziggy Stardust and Princess Supernova sometimes attend! They are Japanese chins and love kids.
