    Join us this monthly adult offering of art making and connection! We’ll rip, cut, stick, draw, paint, and have lots of fun while we’re at it.  

    Please plan to bring a 2-D project and materials of your choice. This could be a sketchbook, a canvas, or any other surface you like.  Collage Club is a time to flex your creativity in a low-stress, low-stakes way. We love to make stuff with paper and hope you will too.

    We’ll have basic supplies on hand (glue, scissors, some collage papers) but ask that guests come with their own supplies.

    Please note: this is an opportunity for gathering and connection - not an instructed class - that is reflected in the registration cost.  

    We hope you’ll come for the making and stay for the community 🙂

    July 14, 2025 @ 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm

    Date: Monday July 14 through Friday July 20, 1:30pm-4pm daily

    Ages: 10-14

    Class size: 16 students

    At this camp, little letterers will learn the basics of hand lettering in an easy-to-understand way and how to continue to create every day with letters after camp. Each day we'll learn something new about lettering and build on the previous day.

    The first day of camp will focus on the basic skills and crafting a journal to use throughout the week. Campers will use the journal for daily alphabet practice and the first project will be lettering the front of their journal. The journals will be a fun way to track our progress throughout the week.

    Following days will focus on continued practice and fun ways to bring letters to life. We will create different projects each day with various writing utensils and mediums so campers will be able to make fun projects outside of camp as well. Some projects during the week will be a chalkboard name sign, card making, and Christmas ornaments. The final project of the week will use all of their new skills to design and make a sign with a quote.

    All materials during the camp will be included.

    The cost is $250 for the week. To pay with cash/check/Venmo, or with questions, contact Shannon at wrightlettering@gmail.com. Please include your child's name and age when registering.

    The first day of camp will focus on the basic skills and crafting a journal to use throughout the week. Campers will use the journal for daily alphabet practice and the first project will be lettering the front of their journal. The journals will be a fun way to track our progress throughout the week.

    Following days will focus on continued practice and fun ways to bring letters to life. We will create different projects each day with various writing utensils and mediums so campers will be able to make fun projects outside of camp as well. Some projects during the week will be a chalkboard name sign, card making, and Christmas ornaments. The final project of the week will use all of their new skills to design and make a sign with a quote.

    All materials during the camp will be included.

    The cost is $250 for the week. To pay with cash/check/Venmo, or with questions, contact Shannon at wrightlettering@gmail.com. Please include your child's name and age when registering.
