About The Event
Get ready to go big with mural art! This week, campers will learn the basics of large-scale painting, from planning and design to working collaboratively on a shared mural project downtown. Students will explore composition, color, and storytelling through visual art, and reveal their finished portion of the mural during a Student Art Show on Friday, July 31! This will be followed by a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the completed mural on August 7.
This year's summer camp mural will reflect the themes of the new The Dalles Roundabout installation, honoring the natural ecology of our river and the cultural significance of its species. Expect campers to come home with lots of fun facts about local fish!
