Ceramics Philosophy June
Category: Education • Free • Summer Camps | Season:
Explore your inner Kaneko in this brand new ceramics camp.
Campers will learn the foundation of hand-building methods of slab, coil, and pinching clay. Activities will be wide-ranging, including ideas about sound, architecture, the vessel, and personal narratives. Students will have the opportunity to discuss current pieces in the KANEKO exhibition, surrounding works in the Old Market, and a tour of the Jun Kaneko studio. Campers should come ready to have a high-energy week that includes quick sketch periods, short gallery and neighborhood tours, and multi-piece explorations of the ideas they bring for each assignment. No prior experience is needed and novice students are encouraged to join. Campers will be led by ceramics artist and former Jun Kaneko studio assistant Peter Scherr. Children Entering Grades 6-9.

WHAT DO YOU NEED?
All materials needed for this camp will be provided by and delivered to your door by a KANEKO staff member. All you will need to participate in this camp is the following:

DONATIONS GLADLY ACCEPTED 💯
We believe that every child should have the opportunity to explore their creativity and are so happy that you chose to enroll your child in this Creative Summer Camps with the KANEKO!
The COVID-19 pandemic has made it much more difficult for families to provide their children with unique and thoughtful learning opportunities, which is why we’ve made our camps online and FREE this summer. COVID-19 has also made a large dent in the KANEKO’s programming funds, so if you wish to donate, we would be forever thankful for your generosity; all proceeds will go towards our educational programming.

Video Game Design
Category: Education • Free • Summer Camps | Season:
Explore the creative process of video games.
A returning champion from summers past, Video Game Design camp welcomes a new instructor that offers an exciting new creative process! In this camp, students will jump into the video game development pipeline and practice 2D game design principles alongside the RHO Interactive game design team. Using the Unity game engine and open-source software, campers will create new character skins, animations, backgrounds, and complete playable levels using RHO’s multiplayer battle-game “Megaton Punchers”. This camp offering requires no coding, as we will focus on the creation of digital assets and the use of in-engine tools for making fully interactive experiences focused on core game design principles and narrative development practices. Children Entering Grades 7-9
