Welcome to our Art and Nature Camp, where adventure and creativity converge amidst the beauty of the Natural State!

Led by experienced naturalists from 37 North, this camp sparks curiosity and fosters a deep appreciation for the connection between art and nature. Through hands-on activities harvesting natural materials, campers will unleash their creativity, crafting unique art pieces made from and inspired by the environment. From found art sculptures to nature mosaics, natural dyeing, and plant printmaking, they’ll learn innovative techniques to transform nature’s gifts into stunning works of art.

Our camp encourages a deeper connection with nature, fostering an appreciation for the environment while nurturing artistic expression. Campers will discover the endless possibilities of utilizing natural materials, all the while learning about the importance of preserving our natural surroundings.

Tickets are $190 ($155 for members). Reserve your spot online or with Guest Services at (479) 657-2335 today.
