Craziest Mazie Summer Culture Bugs Camp 3-5 yrs

From tots to teens, Culture Bugs! offers a summer of magical fun especially designed for kids with some of the city's most talented, experienced resident teaching artists. Prepare for the insanely wild kitchen sink of great art making. From Painting to Manga to Video to Opera to Gallery Hops, Great Art will prevail! Prepare for the most inspiring summer of your life!, with our incredible staff, kids are guaranteed to have the artiest, most inspiring summer of their lives. 

Culture Bugs! is fully committed to a creative, child-centered methodology that encourages children to express themselves freely, to develop a sense of ease, familiarity and mastery in the "high" arts, and have a ton of fun all at the same time. 

Culture Bugs! integrates visits to the city’s most important museums and galleries with focused in-studio sessions of music, dance and hands-on art. Children dig into a broad range of artists’ materials as they sing, dance, improvise, read poetry, listen to late 20th and 21st century music and stretch their active minds and bodies into new and exciting configurations. Each child works according to his or her abilities, and appropriate faculty is available to work with both older and younger participants.  

There is a 5:1 camper/ teacher ratio of talented artists drawn from some of the best arts institutions and MFA programs in the country: Columbia, SVA, Yale, Harvard and Hunter, to name just a few. The program encourages children to take the lead in dictating the shape of projects, and the continued emphasis on well-defined themes gives them a sense of autonomy and creative freedom.
