Bush Studio: primary visual arts camp provides an opportunity for public school students in Years 5 and 6 to be involved in an engaging, challenging and stimulating visual arts program led by experienced visual arts teachers.
The camp aims to provide students with an opportunity to observe, interpret and respond to their immediate environment, the Hawkesbury River and surrounding forests. Students will discover strategies to explore their immediate experience of the landscape to create preliminary works that are process-focused as departure points for resolved studio-based artworks. Students will investigate ways to create sculptural works using natural found objects and use these sculptures to facilitate the making of drawings and monoprints. The program will culminate in an exhibition for families, friends and teachers on the final day of the camp.
All Arts Units programs are inclusive. If support is required to participate in the Bush Studio – Brewongle Environmental Education Centre program, please email [email protected] so we can assist.
