Unleashing Creativity: TPW's Dynamic Summer Camp As summer approaches, parents seek enriching experiences for their children, and The Painting Workshop (TPW) in Mt. Washington emerges as the ideal haven for young artists aged 5-13. This dynamic summer camp goes beyond art instruction, celebrating diversity, cooperation, and the human spirit to foster an environment where joy and creativity flourish. TPW's summer camp prioritizes a safe and nurturing space for children to explore their inner artists, with age-appropriate activities promoting social and emotional growth. Led by experienced teachers, including founder Alana McFall with over 30 years of teaching experience, the "Painting Workshop Way" emphasizes collaboration, social-emotional development, and community support. Outdoor exploration is a key feature, incorporating physical activities like parachute games and water balloon battles to encourage movement and camaraderie. The camp also integrates quiet contemplation time, fostering mindfulness and balance. The camp's STEAM-rich curriculum intertwines science, math, world cultures, and language arts concepts into art projects. Embracing the "Beautiful Oops" philosophy, where mistakes are opportunities for growth, instills resilience and a positive attitude towards challenges. Safety and excellence are paramount at TPW, with teachers trained in first aid, CPR, and Restorative Practices. All staff undergo federal and state background checks, ensuring a secure environment for children. A parent's review attests to the transformative experience: "This studio is special! Alana and her team create an environment rich in substance and technique to enable your child to grow as an artist while facilitating a positive, inclusive, and cooperative group dynamic." TPW extends its offerings beyond summer camps, providing after-school classes for kids, adult morning and evening painting classes, weekend workshops, and Libations & Creations, a unique twist on paint and sips. TPW invites your child to join this vibrant community, where creativity, cooperation, and joy intertwine. Secure a spot for your young artist today, offering them the chance to create lasting memories and skills for a lifetime.
