Art is so much more than a painting on the wall. At Dutchess Arts Camp we focus on empowering children to tap their imagination and develop their own ideas. Using diverse materials our staff will guide them through the process of creating original work while teaching solid skills in a FUN and supportive environment. Our camp program is a blend of performing and visual arts alongside activities that stir the imagination as well as provide opportunities for play. Whether we are creating a 9 foot bubble, racing down our splash beach slide, writing a script for our play or painting a mural together, our days are jam packed with excitement.

Professional and dynamic artist-educators, selected for their commitment to working with children, involve each camper in the creative process and provide individual encouragement in a supportive environment.

4 Campus across Dutchess County: Millbrook • Poughkeepsie • Red Hook • Beacon Weekly Friday Afternoon “Sharings” Family and friends are encouraged to attend our special Friday afternoon  “Sharings.” You will enjoy and be amazed at your child’s creative discoveries in each week’s unique multi-arts explorations and performances.
