Class Focus: Exploring & Mapmaking
All camps located on private land, “New Arcadia”, a short walk into the enchanted forest and in the shade at the StarHouse, 11 minutes from downtown Boulder.
Join us this week as we become explorers seeking the mystical land of New Arcadia. With our trusty map making tools, we will set out to document our real (and fictional) surroundings, using ink, watercolor and our big imaginations. Help tell the story of this land, and step into the character you’d most like to be for the week. Are you a king disguised as a common traveler? Or perhaps a sea captain on his way home? Maybe an elfin princess or a dragon rider who has just come down out of the sky? We will act out the stories we imagine this week, and weave them into our fantastical maps as well.
All weeks of camp include a fun and balanced approach to the day; blending hands-on projects with free play by the creek and under the trees. We love energetic group games, music and storytelling, and of course, we enjoy eating together--all campers please bring a sack lunch, snack and water bottle.
For ages 6-12, maximum of 14 campers.
