Open House & Art Truck Reveal
June 4, 1 PM - 4 PM 
Come and learn about summer classes, check out the Sally Elliott exhibition, walk through Edwards Place, and see the reveal of our long-awaited Make Truck! This is a studio on wheels that is part of our Bronwyn Eves Memorial Art Outreach program. A free project will be available at the Make Truck, as well. This event is a great opportunity for camp families. You'll be able to get a feel for our campus and review which studios your child's camps will be held in. Many of our camp faculty will be in attendance to show examples of projects, to demonstrate their own art techniques, and to meet campers! |
Hoopskirt and Haber-Dash
August 27, 8 AM 
Race back to the 19th century in the Hoopskirt and Haber-Dash. This is a 5K fun run where you can dress like you just stepped out of a haberdashery in hat and tie, or that you just made your debut in the biggest hoopskirt you can find! The course is a mostly flat course in Abraham Lincoln’s Springfield, through Enos Park neighborhood, north to Lincoln Park, and back down again. Fun costuming is encouraged, with a prize for the best dressed of the bunch. More details to come! |
