Japanese art blends beautiful, long-standing traditions with exciting, modern styles that influence artists all over the world. Our camp introduces your child to the unique aspects of Japanese art—from the cute pen strokes of Kawaii and the careful folds of origami, to the bold styles of contemporary manga and anime. Campers not only learn about art—they dive into cultural practices that develop patience, attention to detail, and a deeper love for artistic creation. But we don't stop there!
