Program Overview:

Camp Observant Eye invites young learners to slow down, observe deeply, and explore art through hands-on experiences. Inspired by The Observant Eye at The Met, this camp nurtures creativity, mindfulness, and storytelling through close-looking activities, art-making, and interdisciplinary exploration. Campers will focus on a single artwork, object, or natural form each day to develop their critical thinking and observational skills.

Led by Professional Artists with Museum and Art Education Experience!

Inspired by The Met’s Observant Eye program, our camp fosters focus, curiosity, and critical thinking through close-looking activities. Led by a professional artist with experience at The Met and NYC’s Children’s Museum, we offer an engaging, interdisciplinary approach to art that builds confidence, patience, and self-expression. Our highly trained staff come from Columbia University’s Teachers College and NYU’s Art School, ensuring a top-tier art education experience. Campers connect with nature and mindfulness while developing their artistic skills in a nurturing environment.
