Each day this summer, we'll be spotlighting a different group or activity at camp with a post from one of our staff members. Today's post is from Angela - our Arts & Crafts Specialist!
Hillcrest Jewish Center Day Camp welcomes back campers and staff after a year off. Each week is a new creative adventure at Arts & Crafts. Campers walk into the Arts & Crafts room eager to know what they will be creating. During the first week of camp the campers designed different Fourth of July arts and crafts. The art projects were different according to the campers age groups. The younger campers created paintings of fireworks made out of their handprints with fire sparks made from paint and glitter splashing out. The older campers designed flags using red, white, and blue cutout paper, in which their hands displayed four fingers to represent the Fourth of July as well as cutout handprints displaying fireworks. They used their imagination to decorate the flags and fireworks.
The second week of camp consisted of campers making masks using tissue paper, feathers, and pipe cleaners. The young campers enjoyed designing their own picture frames, flower pictures, and bookmarks. Everyday is full of new projects utilizing the art supplies and their imaginative minds. The summer has just begun and there is so much more to come.
