Hot glue plus thin plastic (plastic bags and tablecloths) plus a fan equals a three-dimensional inflatable sculpture!

Campers will learn about sculpture, installation, and site-specific art with these fun, yet challenging, materials. Working in groups or individually, kids will plan, design, and sketch out ideas to create large inflatable sculptures. Campers will be introduced to contemporary sculptors working in this medium and will have ample studio time to realize their projects.

Later in the week campers will also learn the basics of spray painting to create directional signs to lead viewers to their finished pieces. On the last day of camp Verge will have a tour to inflate and view all of the sculptures!
