Every hero has an origin story – and so does every villain. Step into the world of imagination at Epic Origins: Heroes & Villains, and marvel at your young artist becoming the mastermind behind epic tales of good vs. evil. This weeklong camp invites campers to unleash their creativity and bring to life their own unique characters, develop dramatic narratives, and design unforgettable visuals. Guided by encouraging instructors, they’ll discover their confidence and teamwork to discover the hero within — and perhaps a villainous side, too.
Grades K – 6
