Create Miami launches two ART Summer Camp programs for children ages 4-10 this summer in South Miami and Kendall! Founded by former museum director and local arts leader Caroline Parker and led by a team of award-winning Art teachers and therapists, Create Miami may be the best new Art Education organization in Miami-Dade County.
Create Miami ART Summer Camps will provide guided instruction from certified Art teachers, guaranteeing that children will gain confidence as they develop new skills. Campers will experiment with soft/oil pastels, clay, plaster, papier-mâché, charcoal, and a variety of paint. All campers will enjoy art activities, educational presentations, camp games, and weekly water play!
“We are so grateful to Tropical Audubon Society in South Miami and The Creative Learning Center and Central Presbyterian Church in Kendall for being the proud host venues for our inaugural season. Both campuses are beautiful and offer a variety of fun, learning opportunities,” says MDCPS Art teacher and Create Miami program director Monica Sante, who takes the lead on the Camp’s curriculum development and instruction.
“These Camps are the beginning of something greater”, explains director Caroline Parker. In the fall, expect to see a variety of Create Miami programs, from community public art projects to after-school classes for children of all abilities, including a special class – Art for Autism. “Art has the power to build communities and transform neighborhoods. We want everyone to feel empowered by Art.”
Create Miami is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing communities through arts education, art access, and public art programs.
