About Girdwood Fine Arts Camp

25th Annual, Silver Anniversary, 2011 Girdwood Fine Arts Camp

Girdwood Fine Arts Camp lets children explore and learn about art through creative projects, different mediums and exploration.  Phone registration begins May 1, 2011 at 783-CAMP.  Contact Thalia Wilkinson by phone (783-1965) or email (wilkinson_thalia@asdk12.org) for more information.

Arts Camp was established in 1987 to foster natural artistic talents by providing young people instruction in the craft and techniques of the fine arts.  Our students collaborate with professional artists/instructors who are chosen for their ability to inspire and bring out the best in their students.  The finest quality art materials are used, and our student/teacher ratio is 1:6.

Arts Camp is held during the final weeks of July in the spectacular setting of Girdwood Valley.  The whole town gets involved in this highly anticipated annual cultural event, which inspires and connects all participants with the high energy of the artistic program.  Parents and townspeople are treated to an Exhibition of Students’ Work at the finale on Friday, July 29th, 2011, 6:30-8:30pm.
