EMILY VELANDIA:
ARTIST/ACTRESS/DIRECTOR

Emily has been with the Art Camp Family for a long time. She's been a camper, a JCIT, a CIT, a counselor and now she's excited to be an instructor. Her interests in the arts vary as widely as her jobs at Art Camp. She has a passion for painting, drawing and spends much of her free time writing prose, poetry and scripts. But her passions don't stop there. She actively participates in her school's annual musical and is part of a Media Focus Program. That is where she honed and developed her filmmaking skills for 3 years creating numerous successful vignettes. In fact, one of them won first place at the Notre Dame Film Festival. Now she's excited to spend her 10th summer at camp teaching all that she knows as a workshop instructor!
