Marshall Muse Gallery Summer Art Camps:
A Creative Adventure for Kids!

Are you looking for the ultimate summer camp experience for your child in Greensboro, NC? At The Marshall Muse Gallery, we go above and beyond to make sure every child feels inspired, engaged, and excited about creating art!

Our camps aren’t just about making art, though. They’re also about exploring, experimenting, and expressing in a fun, safe, and energetic environment. Led by our enthusiastic and talented instructors, campers will dive into a world of creativity, art history, and hands-on projects that allow them to think outside the box.

What to expect at camp!

  • Immersive Art Experience – Kids will explore a variety of art techniques, from painting and sculpture to mixed media and printmaking.

  • Freedom to Create – We encourage kids to expand on their own ideas, experiment, and make their art truly their own—no cookie-cutter projects here!

  • Art History & Inspiration – We sprinkle in exciting stories about famous artists and movements to help young artists connect with the past while creating something new.

  • Gallery Tour – Campers get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at our professional gallery, seeing artwork by local artist up close!

  • Fun & Messy – We believe art should be joyful, hands-on, and sometimes even a little messy—because that’s where the magic happens!

  • 3.5hrs of Creativity & Exploration Daily – Perfect for parents who need time to work, run errands, or enjoy a well-deserved break while their child has a blast.

  • Outdoor Play – Because fresh air and a little movement make creative minds even sharper!

  • Tie-Dye T-shirt & Popsicle Fridays for fun! We encourage kids to wear their tie-dye t-shirt they made early in the week to camp on Fridays for photos, popsicles and extra outdoor fun. Art Show, Friday is also our art show where the kids get to show off all of their hard work. Plan to come in at pick up, take a look at all they created and take advantage of our photo op areas.

This isn’t just a camp, it’s an artistic adventure that will give your child new skills, confidence, and unforgettable summer memories. Don’t wait; spots fill up fast!

Sign up today and let your child experience the best summer ever at The Marshall Muse Gallery.
