CLARKSVILLE, TN – The Community School of the Arts (CSA) at Austin Peay State University is diving into the ocean for this year’s Summer Arts Camp, and registration is open through May 29. Aspiring young artists can participate in painting, drawing, ceramics, dance, and theatre workshops, and decorate their own T-shirts.
Children ages 8-15 can choose from two weeks of immersive, identical undersea adventure-themed day camps running from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. July 6-10 and July 13-17.
Participants will be divided into two groups, ages 8-10 and 11-15, with a maximum of 20 students per group (40 participants total). The $400 camp fee covers all lunches, snacks, art supplies, and swag. Each camp session features top-tier instruction using the university’s state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.
Parents can reserve their child’s spot or learn more at the Summer Arts Camp website.
