SUMMER PROGRAMS!

Art Cart:

Art Cart 2008 Map & Schedule

Co-sponsored by the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art and MSCR
The Art Cart is a free, traveling art program that provides creative, outdoor art-making experiences to children ages 3+ and their families. Activities include both group and individual projects, with a variety of materials. Friday afternoon features plaster casting on the beach and the week of July 14 features the re-painting of the Vilas Park Shoe-a Madison tradition! Groups larger than 8 people are limited to one visit per summer and MUST pre-register by calling 608.204.3021.

Super Center Arts Camp

In 1996, MSCR developed the Super Center Arts Camp and since then over 10,000 youth entering grades 1-5 have participated! In many ways Super Center is like your typical summer day camp program because it includes swimming, field trips, and outdoor activities. Thespecial difference is the emphasis on the Arts. Participants are grouped by age and rotate through music, drama and art each day, all revolving around a weekly theme. This camp is great for children who would prefer to have more exposure to music, art and drama than a general camp provides. Field trips or special performances usually take place on Fridays. Extended day option consists of quiet games, self-directed art activities and supervised outdoor play.

PLEASE NOTE! The Kennedy Super Center site will be a bi-lingual/Spanish site this summer for families that would like this opportunity!
