ART EXPLORATION CAMP
Offered to rising 3rd - 8th grade students
Spend a week exploring new mediums for artistic expression. Campers will try their hand at ceramics and weaving under the guidance of our own Ms. Forrest. By utilizing a variety of materials, campers will complete the week with multiple works of three-dimensional art and perhaps a new creative passion.
Did you know that Ms. Forrest is the current President of the GMU National Art Education Association Student Chapter? She is also currently exhibiting some of her work with a group of art educators in Alexandria at the National Art Educators Association National Office. All of this on top of teaching Art here at Saint Anthony's!
Week available:
Half Day Week 3: July 3 - July 7
Half Day Week 4: July 10 - July 14
8:00a - 12:00p
Cost: $250.00 for the whole week.
If you require a full-day option, campers are able to move to the Primary camp once the half-day is completed. Please see the notes on the registrations when making this choice.
Don’t hesitate to contact our [email protected] should you have any questions.

Updates from the Nurses Corner
In this ever-changing climate, please remember to keep your children drinking water and protect their lips from dryness with a cotton swab and petroleum ointment. And likewise, this can be done to their nose (nostrils), especially if a student is prone to nosebleeds.
Also, remember to encourage your children to use warm water and soap four times a day and supplement with hand sanitizer if that is the only option. Noroviruses (norovirus is a stomach virus) require warmer water to kill them.
Lastly, please consider washing coats, hats, scarves, and gloves to help prevent illnesses.
