Vibe of Portland is a nonprofit organization providing accessible art and music education for youth.

Each summer, Vibe offers half-day and full-day art camps for children ages 5–14, encouraging imaginative thinking and creative exploration.

Programs are held at Vibe Studios in southeast Portland and at community locations throughout the city.

About the activity:

Welcome to Vibe’s Animals in Nature Summer Camp!
Let your young artist’s imagination run wild as we explore the beauty of the natural world through art. Designed for ages 5–8, this week-long camp blends creative expression with engaging literacy experiences — all centered around the inspiring theme of animals and nature.

New for 2026:
Each camp for ages 5–9 now includes a literacy component designed to support early reading comprehension and language development. Through storytelling, group discussions, and art-infused literacy activities, campers build foundational skills joyfully and naturally — where reading enhances hands-on creativity.
Nature-Inspired Drawing & Painting: Campers will explore how artists represent animals and nature through line, shape, and color. They'll create their own expressive drawings and paintings inspired by forests, oceans, deserts, and more.
3D Animal Sculpture: From clay to mixed media, young artists will sculpt favorite animals and imaginative creatures using a variety of textures and materials.
Crafty Nature Creations: Using twigs, leaves, recycled materials, and paper craft techniques, campers will create whimsical works that reflect their favorite outdoor habitats.
Storytime & Creative Literacy Activities: Each day includes a short read-aloud or storytelling session that connects to the camp’s theme, followed by fun activities to encourage discussion, vocabulary building, and story-inspired art.
Interactive Group Projects: Campers will work together on collaborative art pieces that celebrate the diversity and beauty of the natural world, building both teamwork and confidence.
