ARTSCOPE TO BE HELD IN CHICKASHA
FOR TWELFTH YEAR

Artscope is a summer arts day camp for children held on the campus of USAO in Chickasha. Enrollment is open for children ages 8-12 for the two-week, all-day program, which will be held June 14-25.

Day campers will be able to study drawing, painting, sculpting, theatre, dance, and music as well as experience a presentation from a guest artist. Artscope instructors have extensive experience as both teaching and performing artists. Theatre teachers are Katie Davis and Julie Bohannon.
Visual Arts teachers are Carrie Brown and Amy Widener. Crystal Wyatt will teach musical theatre, and Emily Hector will instruct the dance classes. Artscope will be a great way to experience the arts from real artists and to learn how artists think and create while having fun.

Funding for Artscope is provided by the Oklahoma Arts Council. Student scholarships are available for students that are eligible to receive free or reduced lunches at school and agree to attend camp every day. Other scholarships are also available for students who do not qualify for the school lunch program but who might have difficulty attending camp without assistance. The scholarship deadline is May 1, 2010. The scholarship application is available by clicking the link below. All remaining scholarships will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis after the deadline.

Artscope is a non-profit program of the Chickasha Area Arts Council and the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma Foundation.
