At the Greenwich Historical Society’s Art and History Camp, kids learn important skills while exploring Connecticut’s colonial history and the works of the Cos Cob Art Colony through games, crafts and hands-on fun. Creative young minds will spend time in our historic gardens and barn, exploring their surroundings using art, science, and old-fashioned ingenuity under the guidance of professional educators and artists. Space is limited!
Campers will learn about the Cos Cob Art Colony and the avant-garde work of the impressionist artists that stayed at the Bush Holley House. In sessions led by Master Painter Dmitri Wright, campers will have the opportunity to learn about color, light and form as they create their own unique works of art. Activities include painting en plain air, exploring mixed mediums, and theatre.
