Winter Camps

Winter Camps

Winter camps at The Art Spark are a unique opportunity for your child to engage with art materials in a variety of ways including painting, clay sculpture,  drawing, recyclable art, and more! Camps at The Art Spark begin with brainstorming sessions and are fueled by your child's creativity and ideas. Each camp is sold a la carte. That means you can sign up for one morning, an afternoon, full days, or multiple days! It's easy to add lunch to your child's morning camp in our customer portal. Winter camps will fill quickly and have limited space so be sure to secure your spot today! All camps include all art materials and a snack. We use a variety of art materials and instruct students for the entire three hour period.


All camps cost $75 per artist (per morning/afternoon) and cost will increase to $100 Dec 2, 2025.

Winter Art Camps Descriptions

Junior Art Camps are designed for children ages 3-5 years and 4-5 years. All children must be fully potty trained.  Junior Art Camps are sold as half days. (A child in this age range is not permitted to stay full day as there is no rest period.)

If your child has not attended a program 3 hours long before, this is a great place to start! We incorporate play time, stories, and snack time into this camp.


If your child is in Kindergarten and is confident with scissors and messy materials, they are ready for our 5-10 year old camps!



Here is a list of our Winter Art Camps for children. Full Descriptions can be seen on customer portal.

  • What is your behavioral policy?


    We are so excited to have your child joining us at The Art Spark! Our students will learn all about art and creativity while at the same time grow to be more independent. We know this can be a lot for them and always strive to teach with patience and kindness. We use a myriad of different art supplies with the children and as teachers we are sometimes handling hot glue guns, sharp scissors, box cutters, etc. We keep these away from the little ones, but if a student refuses to listen they could get hurt. We try to maintain an extremely safe atmosphere and listening to the teacher is number one in promoting a secure environment. To help create this environment, we ask that you speak to your child(ren) before class to encourage good listening, respect of the teacher and materials, importance of being kind to others, and staying with the teacher at all times. If your camper seems to be experiencing behavior issues we will follow our 1,2,3 policy below:

    Step 1: Take action within the class to change the behavior. 

    Step 2: If the behavior doesn’t positively change within the day, we will reach out to our student’s parent or guardian to address the issue. This will be in a paper document called a "Think Sheet". A Think Sheet will help you and your child understand the behavior that needs to change the next time they come to The Art Spark.  

    Step 3: If said behavior continues to persist after the Think Sheet, we will unfortunately have the student stop class and refund the remaining time.


    Immediate Removal

    Please, note that The Art Spark WILL NOT tolerate aggressive behavior(i.e.hitting, kicking, biting, etc.) We will give the parent/ guardian a phone call to immediately remove the child and we will refund you. The purpose of this is to protect the rights of our teachers and the rights of other children who sometimes become victims of an aggressive child. As a general rule, aggressive behavior does not include running, sitting still, keeping hands to self, etc. in which occasional time-outs/ talks may be used. We hope this policy does not affect anyone, but we must protect the teacher’s rights and the rights of children in our care.

    Please, also note that The Art Spark WILL NOT tolerate volatile, loud and angry outbursts/ tantrums that can’t be contained in a timely matter. Unfortunately, we are not in a large enough space or have a large enough staff/ aides to help with these type of issues. If your child struggles with loud noises, transitions, group settings, etc. The Art Spark’s programs might not be right for them. If we see this happening we reserve the right to ask a parent/ guardian to immediately remove the child and you will receive a full refund.


    Please, note that when signing up for any Art Spark program you are agreeing to this policy.


  • What is the Winter camp cancellation policy?

    Camp Cancellation Policy: Camp cancellation can occur more than 2 weeks prior to camp and a $35 fee is applied per camp. If you cancel two or more weeks in advance (before the camp your child is signed up for) you will receive a refund. If cancellation occurs less than two weeks prior to their camp you will not receive a refund or a credit. If cancellation occurs less than two weeks prior due to illness or an emergency you will receive a credit if requested prior to camp start date. No e-mail no show campers (prior to camp start) will not receive a refund or credit.  Art materials will not be saved for children who miss camp.  If you need to switch to a different camp e-mail us at create@theartspark.com.
