Art Camp

Create Like an ACE!

You are invited to come and create art with the art faculty and students of the University of Evansville’s Department of Art!

Exploring Art is a half day weeklong art camp where students will draw, paint, dye, marbleize various art pieces and create jewelry. Exploring Art is led by UE Art Faculty and current students who emphasize creative confidence. Students will tour our art studios and discuss in-depth what it means to be an art making ACE.

For our returning artists, you can expect to create new art pieces that will be vastly different from years past. For our new artists, we hope this will be a new and exciting camp that you will enjoy. Our goal is for all attending artists to learn, create, and explore all the possibilities in the field of art!

Students will receive a 106-piece art kit that they will get to take home on the last day of camp.
