Summer Youth Programs

Information about 2013 Summer Youth Programs

Bring your camp or youth group to MOBIA this summer for a fun, hands-on exploration of the world of book arts! Students are introduced to traditional book forms, and will also discover the many ways artists working today are inspired by what they read and see in these ancient texts. After exploring interesting works of art on view in the Museum through discussion and activities, campers will create their own book to take home. Workshops are appropriate for Pre-K through 12th grade students and can be tailored to meet the needs and interests of each group.
