Contemporary Architecture Intensive!
The 2nd Annual Greg Hemberger Sustainable Architecture Workshop July 22-26 Structured for young people with an interest in sustainable design and construction, this five-day, hands-on workshop will consist of morning sessions at AVA, led by local professionals, and afternoon visits to local architecture offices, construction companies, and LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified buildings. The workshop will incorporate architectural design principles, free-hand drawing, model building, sustainability standards, and other pertinent topics. It will also provide students with new design skills, personal portfolio material, and an idea of whether sustainable architecture and construction is of potential career interest to them.***  The Tradition Continues!
Oil Painting July 29-August 2 This course will engage teens in the challenges of oil painting from life. Participants will begin by working from still life, then move on to painting landscapes from photographs of their choice. Color, composition and other fundamentals will all be covered. Beginners welcome. ***  New!
Micro Macro August 5-9 and 12-16 Get ready to think BIG, look CLOSE and get INSPIRED by microscopic and macroscopic explorations of plant life! If you love nature and art, this camp is for you. Participants will visit the Murdough Greenhouses at Dartmouth as well as the College's microscope lab to look at plants from unique perspectives. Inspired by these visual investigations, we will use innovative and traditional art-making techniques to create both realistic and abstract works in a variety of 2D and 3D media. This program is funded in part by a grant from the National Science Foundation.
