Best of Art Camp 2025

Opening reception, Friday, July 25th at 5:30pm

An Exhibit of student works During ACW Summer Camp

You’re invited to celebrate the incredible creativity of our summer camp artists! Join us for “Best of Art Camp,” featuring original artworks inspired by art history’s greatest masters and unsung heroes.

From ancient art to Pop art, our young artists explored diverse styles and created works that are uniquely their own. Come see how they’ve transformed their summer learning into stunning visual stories.

 

“Beyond Blue” is an open interpretation art exhibit featuring PACT artists  and their versions of what it means to go beyond the color blue.
