Adult Arts & Crafts Camp

May 18-21, 2023
The Adult Arts & Crafts Camp is getting ready for its third year at Camp Westminster on Higgins Lake! Please plan to arrive Thursday evening (May 18); we will start creating that night and for the following three days.
​
We have planned some fun classes for this year! New this year:
​
-
Fabric collage greeting cards for yourself or as Christmas cards;
-
Fabric & Mixed Media wall hangings using fabric image transfers and free hand stitching;
-
Sand cast candles with driftwood pieces or just pressed designs in the sand;
-
A new quilt design for a group project that will be donated to the Linus Project for kids who have experienced trauma;
-
Wood & glass outdoor hanging pieces made with marbles, glass globs, and fused glass pieces;
-
Metalwork candle holders and sculptures, learning to use some new tools to bend and drill holes in metal pieces;
-
Coasters with decoupage using images from magazines or tissue paper; and,
-
Nature photography to make a promotional calendar.
Plus some traditional favorites: glass fusing for jewelry pieces, sewing quilt squares, tote bags, table runners, and pillows.
​
This year we will also be working on a group project preparing a mural on the back wall of the tennis courts. We will outline a design that campers can paint color into this summer as an arts & crafts project. The design will be based on the Higgins Lake area’s animals, bugs, and plants.
​
There are many fun things to create a fun-filled summer for the campers and ourselves! Won’t you please join us and invite a friend to come too! The food is excellent, the company fabulous, and a weekend up at Camp Westminster, who could ask for anything more?
​
Plan to arrive Thursday evening ready to get crafting! All meals are provided starting with Friday breakfast through lunch on Sunday. Please bring a sleeping bag, toiletries, and a towel. Your fee covers lodging, meals, and all craft materials.
Please contact retreat leader Karole Sharpe or the camp office with any questions.
