This summer, we are offering three 1-week camps for younger students (6-10 years) and three 1-week camps for older students (11-16 years) between June 26th and August 18th.

Refund Policy
Tuition for Summer Art Camp is due in full upon registration of student(s). Should your student(s) be unable to attend the camp he/she is registered for, we kindly require notice at least 2 weeks before the camp start date so that we can give you a full refund. We are not able to offer you a full refund if we do not receive notice at least 2 weeks before the camp start date, though a partial refund may be available. We want to provide as many young students the opportunity to learn and grow creatively and artistically as possible, and this required 2 weeks notice grants us time to fill an available camp spot.
Questions?
We'd be happy to answer any of your questions! Please contact us in the form below, or reach us by phone at (518) 280-4928 or by email at contact@thebloomingartist.gallery.
