Winter Break Art Camp
Come have fun in the studio with Cameron in this 3-day art camp! Kids will start in the Kimball Clay Studio on Wednesday making all sorts of ceramic creations. Then, students will doodle, sketch, paint, layer, glue and have fun as they create unique pieces of art on Friday. Kids will take a break mid-day to eat lunch and relax. After lunch, students return to the studio for creative free time and a PG rated movie. We will provide popcorn for the movie – please notify
staff if your child has any allergies! Spaces fill fast – register in advance to reserve your space! Due to drying and firing times, pottery will be ready to pick up 12-14 days after the class.
Night Figure Sketch – Session IV
Need to wind down from the work day? Grab an easel or a drawing horse, bring a pad of paper, your preferred drawing medium, and your creativity. A nude and/or draped model will be present to pose. Students will work with the model to communicate positions, quick draw exercises, or extended time draws, etc., which will allow students to continue their study of the figure. There is no instructor during this open studio session, so it is suggested that students who register have figure drawing experience. This class is meant to be a creative meeting place for artistic people to share their techniques and skills in a community setting. Come by and try it! Space is limited to 10 students, so please register in advance to reserve your space. This class is for adults only 18+.

Hike & Shoot: Cell Phone Photography Workshop
Develop your photographic vision and learn about your cell phone camera while exploring the nature and beauty of Park City this summer. Instructor and local photographer Mark Maziarz will meet with participants at the Kimball Art Center at 5:30 p.m. and then go out on a hike or walk that suits the goals of the class for the evening. This informal workshop will have an open studio feeling where we will discuss questions, challenges, issues and ideas you have about photography. Topics can include landscapes, people, town scenes, sports and more. We’ll also discuss and practice precedents in the history of photography in search of inspiration and various points-of-view. Any type of smart phone with a camera (iPhone, Android, Windows or Amazon Fire) is required. Advanced beginners and up are welcome. During the field session, students have one-on-one time with the instructor. Students return to the Kimball to review work and discuss next steps. Class includes easy to moderate hikes, so make sure to bring your camera, a charged battery, water, snack and comfortable shoes!
