Introducing “GIRLS ROCK” Summer Art Camp!
Glass Onion Bead Co. will be offering three different “themed” art camps that hopefully will inspire the little artist in your daughter. Each camp is a one-week long session for girls ages 8-12 years old. There will be morning programs and afternoon programs. Each one is 3 hours long for five days.
Each camper will choose a camp name and will be called by that name for the week. Campers are encouraged to wear old clothes or bring a big old shirt to wear because we will get dirty! Each session is limited to eight girls per camp so hurry and get your registration in early! Call or email with any questions you may have. We look forward to exploring and creating with your daughters!
For more information, see below for individual camps!
