2024 SUMMER ARTS CAMP FOR CHILDREN

This year, over 250 students in five elementary schools in Worcester County participated in the Summer Arts Camp program, presented by the Worcester County Arts Council. Students had a unique opportunity to learn about Eastern Shore Farming and Agriculture through hands-on and fun-filled visual and musical performance workshops.

We are grateful for the partnership with the Worcester County Public Schools and talented art teachers that allows us to reach out to a diverse population of Worcester County students in this art enrichment program.

The Worcester County Arts Council is thankful to the OCEAN CITY/BERLIN OPTIMIST CLUB for the continued financial support of the Summer Arts Camp program!

The children’s artwork will be displayed in the Worcester County Arts Council’s Gallery in September (1-30). Join us for the opening reception on Friday, September 13 from 4:00 - 6:00 pm and meet our young artists!

The Worcester County Arts Council Gallery is open Tuesday - Sunday from 11:00 am - 3:00 pm featuring the work of 30 Co-Op Artists.
