Summer Art Camp @ the Museum - PM only

By Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art

BMoCA is excited to be hosting summer art camps for ages 6-11 in June of 2026. We spend our days in the stunning upstairs studio above the museum, and get to make art while being inspired by our surroundings and the contemporary artists' work on display.

Each week includes a museum tour, and each day includes break time outdoors on the large grassy lawns in front of the museum. With a low student-teacher ratio, the most inspiring space, exposure to contemporary art while making amazing work of our own - it doesn't get much better! Join us on Fridays for a mini exhibition during the last half hour (parents invited)!

Weekly Themes:

June 1-5: Ancient Art - Hop in the time machine and imagine a period before museums or art supply stores while we create with the techniques and styles of ancient civilizations.

June 8-12: Artivist/Activist - Inspired by Nikkolas Smith’s “The Artivist,” campers will learn about the power of art and how it can be used to make positive change in the world!

June 15-19: Art Olympics - Ready, set...ART! With a little competition and a lot of fun, let’s explore the playful side of art with a week of creation-based games and challenges.

June 22-26: Mini-Mes - What if our freckles could be rhinestones and our hair was made of yarn? Join us for a week-long project of mixed media sculpture as we craft our very own life-size mini-mes.
