What could be more valuable than an appreciation of art and nature? An appreciation of art IN nature! Let all of Fields Pond (in Holden) be your muse as we couple explorations and observations in nature with expressions of creative freedom. Campers will draw, paint, build, write and act their way through an amazing week looking at our wonderful world through an artist’s lens. This program is aimed at children of ages 6-12 or entering 1st through 6th grade. This week-long program runs each weekday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. beginning Monday, August 6. The cost is $200 per child for Maine Audubon members, $250 per child for non-members.
