Adventures in Public Art Making HDAC Camp: Maisie and Georgia Schnee, together with artist Kelly Holt, are launching a public art project, in our community to activate interest artists in a response to advancements in global warming. They are leading a camp at Helen Day Art Center in July. If you are interested, please sign up! Join the team and bring a powerful idea to life to share in our community! Campers will get to work in various media and collaborate on something BIG. The group will create a mural responding to the idea of BELONGING. The sky's the limit! In this camp, we will look at what artists are putting out into the world and share ideas of how we respond to art as we live alongside it. Instructor: Kelly Holt
