QUESTIONS ASKED BY KIDS:
If I have friends at the Art Camp, will I be in the same workshop with them?
If you specified a best friend you wanted to take a workshop with, we will make every effort to put you with that friend. However, if you applied late and your friend was already signed up in a workshop that is now full, you would not be placed in the same workshop as your friend.

If I bought a camp t-shirt or hat when will I get it?
If you purchased a t-shirt or hat you will be given that at the beginning of first day you attend the Art Camp. If you have not purchased a shirt or hat you can do so at anytime. If you are a Art Camp 101 camper, you will recieve one camp shirt on the first morning of camp. Art Camp 101 shirts are included in camp tuition and must be worn everyday you attend camp so we can easily identify you during the day.

How will I know where my workshops are?
Everyone comes together 10 minutes prior to the start of each workshop. The first 4 days of camp you will get a name tag with all your classes printed on it in the order you will be attending them. The "Little Cheese" will call out all workshops, one-by-one. If you did not hear your workshop called or you forget where to go, you can ask any counselor and they will tell you where you are supposed to be for each of your workshops. After a day or two you should know where to go for all your workshops. If you are a Art Camp 101 camper, you will be pre-assigned to a group and you will stay with your group, and your workshop assistant, throughout the day so you never have to worry about what workshop is next or where to go!

What happens during breaks between workshops?
There are two 25 minute breaks between workshops 1 & 2 and again between workshops 3 & 4. These allow the teachers to prepare for their next class and gives you time to have a quick snack if you brought one. The counselors will supervise you. If you forget where your cubby, or locker is, (which is probably where you put your snack) just ask them!

What if my child does not like a workshop?
On a space available basis and at the director’s or assistant director’s discretion, workshop changes can be made during the first week of camp only, no exceptions. A $10 fee PER workshop is due at the time the change is made. While the Summer Art Academy strives to make Camp enjoyable for all campers, satisfaction with a workshop is subjective on the part of the child and the parent. Therefore, it is understood and agreed that the Summer Art Academy cannot and does not guarantee or warrant any campers' satisfaction with the workshops they have chosen. Art Camp 101 campers are not able to change worshops.
