Creative Papercraft Inventions I
(Grades 7-10, rising)
You may have seen origami birds and frogs, but there is much more you can do with paper than make little animals. In this camp we’ll make cool, unusual things with paper. Instead of regular origami, we’ll make unusual types of origami: really big, geometric, moving and wearable (not all at the same time!). We’ll also explore 3D papercraft, making cut-and-glue models of just about anything you choose: cute animals, famous buildings or any Pokemon ever created. If interested, you can also explore pop-ups and moving mechanical paper models. These activities are designed to inspire and awaken the inventor or designer. You can focus on the technical or the artistic, or a combination of the two! The goal of this camp is to have fun and make things that are beautiful, clever and cool! Registration includes material fee. Instructor: Dr. Heather Booth.

Creative Papercraft Inventions II
(Grades 8-12, rising)
If you’ve ever seen a pop-up book with tabs that pull or scenes that jump toward you as you open the pages, then you have seen the work of a paper engineer and an artist. There are many things you can do with a little creativity, paper, scissors and glue. In addition to pop-ups, many people enjoy making 3D papercraft: paper-and-glue models of all sorts of things (Pokemon, video game characters and cute animals, for example). And, taking that a step further, there are 3D mechanical paper models that move when you turn a (paper!) crank. You can see some cute examples at www.flying-pig.co.uk. In this camp we’ll explore pop-ups and 3D paper models both still and moving. You can make something cool and unusual with only paper, scissors, glue, and a little patience and ingenuity! Registration includes material fee. Instructor: Dr. Heather Booth.

Western Classical Music

This camp aims at describing the historical periods in classical music in a fun and engaging manner for kids. Instructors: Rachel Dennis and Emily Morgan.
