This summer art and science camp experience is designed to give students who want to learn more
about coastal wetland science and art a unique opportunity to explore both disciplines. Each
student will participate in science-based exploration of our coastal marshes through field trips to
the coastal areas surrounding the DeFelice Marine Center. Students will also approach the
experiences as artists and use the marshes as inspiration for art projects they will complete during
camp.
No experience needed… only a willing mind!
