Led by art educators, art historians and museum docents, participants of Kresge Art Museum's Summer Art Camp will EXPLORE, ENJOY, and CREATE original art during the course of a week. By experiencing different ways of looking at art through interactive tours and activities in the museum, kids will then make their own original work in the studios of the MSU Department of Art. At the end of the week, participants will host an exhibition of their own artwork and tour friends and family through the museum.
