High School Summer Art Camp

SAY Sí continues its summer camp programs into the 2026 year! High school students will spend the day in our spacious studios developing hands-on projects in our visual or media arts camps.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

High school students will hone their skills and build their portfolios in 3-week long intensive visual arts or media arts camps! Learn more below.

Class Options

MEDIA ARTS: Genre Based Short Film

In this fast-paced intensive, students will create their own short films inspired by a film genre, anything from horror and sci-fi to comedy, fantasy, or thriller. Working in small crews, students will write, direct, shoot, and edit original films and scenes while learning techniques that make each genre unique. Along the way, they’ll experiment with cinematic camera/editing work and storytelling tricks used in real movies, learning how to take an idea and bring it to life practically. If you love movies and want to make your own, this class is your chance to jump into the director’s chair.

VISUAL ARTS: Beyond Self Portraits

A three week class where you will go beyond a simple self portrait. These drawings and or paintings will be large scale. You will curate your own photo to work from (how you see yourself) We will pay attention to light sources, color, symbols, thematic focus, props, and emotional depth. These do not have to stay within realism, the goal is to connect you to your work.

The goal is to learn how to put “you” into your work AND to have a great portfolio piece!
