If you've joined our camp programs before, we appreciate your support and loyalty, and we can't wait to welcome you and your family back to another wonderful summer of fun and creative programming at camp! We'd love to welcome you this year if you've never experienced Oakville Galleries Summer Camps!
Campers will create artworks inspired by different themes, artists, and exhibitions using various art materials and techniques, including drawing, painting, collage, clay, mixed media and so much more! Our experienced staff will guide campers through the artistic process to create work that draws on their own experiences, creative visions, and imagination. No two campers' outputs look alike, as every activity is adapted to suit our participants' individual ideas, interests, and abilities.
There will be plenty of outdoor time in the surrounding Gairloch Gardens, where opportunities to play in beautiful lakeside grounds will round out the full-day camp experience for our energetic campers.
At the end of each week, campers will set up a pop-up exhibition to share their work with friends and family. All skill levels are welcome!
