Each year we offer 2 weeks of summer camp for students ages 7-12 integrating art, STEAM principles, nature exploration, and outdoor fun. Students can join for a half or full day depending on the sessions they are interested in. Through our outdoor classroom, students learn about working as a team in a small group setting, gain new art skills, and engage in structured activities on our trails that explore our environment and park.
2025 Cost Per Session: $175 PAFAC Members | $200 General Public | Additional Child discount- $10 off when registering a second child for the same camp.
You can sign up for all four camps over the two weeks, or pick and choose one or two that work best for you. Once you decide which camps you want, follow the registration links to submit your information, pay, and reserve your spot for Summer Art Camp 2025.

Find artistic inspiration from Webster’s Woods and the natural world around you! Campers will gain knowledge of the unique aspects of the Olympic Peninsula as they engage in team building activities, hands-on learning about plant and animals, and create nature-inspired 2D and 3D artworks. As an annual offering this session is always a favorite with new topics and projects every year!
In honor of our summer exhibition, “Surf, Skate and Snow”, this week will be about the joy of physical activity in nature. We will celebrate the fun that comes from our bodies in motion and the toys and gear that support that. Build a skateboard, explore snow art, and learn about the history of carving. Find out how athletes are artistically inspired by nature and build your engineering knowledge about how plant, animal and humans generate motion and momentum.
Drawing inspiration from the world around us, students will dive into scientific illustration, nature drawing, and journaling to create amazingly accurate drawings of animals, building and structures. You’ll explore drawing skills with pencil and pen, learn about shading methods, and practice watercolor techniques. Whether you’re into nature, art, or both, this week will help you turn your creativity into super scientific work of art.
Join us for a week of design, building and creative thinking. Whether we are creating illustrations, 3D drawings, or building structures, we must apply STEAM principles to ensure that our designs either look realistic or our construction projects don’t topple over. This week we will complete hands on projects that practice the art of STEAM. Participants will construct and take home a project they build out of wood such as a shelf, table, or bench and they will explore how nature’s geometry and pattern influence our artistic choices.
What does STEAM stand for? Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math. We are excited to take you out in nature to explore all of these elements!
