Gilchrist Art Camp, located in Beaverton, Oregon, offers art-focused summer camps for children aged 5 to 12. Founded in 2007 by Lisa Gilchrist Peterson, the camp emphasizes creativity through the use of found, recycled, and professional-grade materials. Each week features a unique theme, with activities such as ceramics, painting, printmaking, and sculpture.
Get ready for a one-of-a-kind summer adventure blending creativity and outdoor fun! Campers will sculpt, paint, and decorate their own colorful paper-mâché animal heads—perfect keepsakes for showcasing silly summer memories. Midweek, we’re off to Hoffman Farms for a day of sunshine, farm exploration, outdoor games, fresh berry picking, and making edible mud cups before returning to the studio. The week is packed with messy slime, adorable ceramic animal tiles, whimsical sculptures, and endless fun. Don’t miss this unforgettable week of creativity and Pacific Northwest adventure!
