Sponsor Feature!
Camp at Storm King Art Center
Art Camp at Storm King puts kids in the center of the art. The center offers programs for kids and teens. Says one parent: "I think my daughter realized that her art and her journal were incredibly impressive and it wasn't about how it compared to the other participants. Sadie really expanded her feelings about art and found that she liked it. I wanted to let you know that it had a powerful impact on her, perhaps life-changing in some way."
