Early Bird Discount for Art Camp at The Hudgens

The early birds get a summer camp discount. The Hudgens Center for the Arts in Duluth is offering a special Early Bird Discount for children registered for children’s summer art camps before April 30. The center announced that early registrants receive $10 off per registration, so the cost for summer camp would be $165 for The Hudgens members and $190 for non-members.

The Hudgens Center's summer art camps, designed for children ages 5 through 12, have themed sessions tied to current art exhibits to introduce campers to a variety of art-making mediums. Daily art classes include drawing, painting, mixed media, and clay sculpture.

One-week camp sessions run Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. from mid-June until the end of July. After April 30, the cost for each camp will be $175 for members and $200 for non-members of the Hudgens.

There are two themes for the six sessions. “In the Garden: Exploring Art & Nature” is the theme for Sessions 1, 3 and 5, and “The Story of Me: Tell It Through Art,” is the focus for Sessions 2, 4 and 6.

The “In the Garden: Exploring Art & Nature" nature-inspired sessions will be centered around The Hudgens’ enclosed sculpture garden. The “Story of Me: Tell It Through Art” is about discovering how to spin a story without saying a word using literature and multiple art mediums.

Enrollment in summer art camps is limited to just 45 students per session, so register now to ensure your child's space. Online registration and memberships are available at www.thehudgens.org or call 770-623-6002 to register by phone.
