Santa Paula Art Museum — Kids’ Summer Art Camps Start Monday

Kids’ Summer Art Camps inside the Santa Paula Art Museum’s Cole Creativity Center begin Monday, June 12, 2023. Teaching artist Roxanne Casas (pictured above performing a clay demonstration at last weekend’s Kids’ Art Fest) will be starting us off with Intro to Ceramics for ages 9-12.

We’ve got over a dozen art camps to choose from in June, July, and August. Let your kids get their hands dirty and exercise their creativity as they learn to paint, draw, craft, sculpt, and more! All camps are $160 for five half-days of camp. Scroll down to see all of our available camps in June.

Thank you to the over 500 guests who joined us outside the Museum for Kids’ Art Fest this past weekend. We had so much fun making art (and lots of really big bubbles) with our beautiful community. We could not have done it without our incredible docents and volunteers, and our generous sponsors Calavo Growers, Brianne McGrath, Rotary Club of Santa Paula, Lynn and Jerry McReynolds, and La Cabaña Restaurant.

Our staff will be dedicating themselves to kids’ art camps this summer, but Free Family Days will return starting Sunday, September 3, 2023!
