A Creative Camp Designed to Strengthen Skills, Confidence & Artistic Portfolios.

Give your young artist a creative advantage this summer.

The Portfolio Builders Summer Art Program is a 8-week immersive experience designed for teens 12-17 yrs who love art and want to grow their skills while building meaningful artwork they can proudly include in a developing portfolio.
