Sticks, Stones & Structure – Nature Sculptures invites children to become artists, builders, and problem-solvers. Campers explore outdoor sculpture and natural forms during short walks, learning about balance, shape, and structure through observation and play.
Using sticks, stones, leaves, and child-friendly clay, children create their own sculptures and collaborative builds. This hands-on club supports creativity, teamwork, and spatial awareness while giving kids the freedom to experiment, build, and imagine. Projects emphasize process, cooperation, and confidence as children bring their ideas to life.
This camp is primarily outdoors. Students will go outdoors weather permitting. Students should arrive prepared for Colorado mountain weather with appropriate layers, sunscreen applied, sun hat, sunglasses, water bottle, and snacks.
