This Henry County summer arts camp takes place at McDonough Presbyterian Church in Henry County; no long drives, no distant suburban or metro-Atlanta commute, affordable fun. That means less time in the car, more time for your child to dive into art (and you get the convenience of a nearby drop-off/pick-up).
1. Affordable & Transparent Pricing
The pricing is clear and manageable on the summer arts camp page:
- Visual Arts 1 (Kindergarten–3rd grades) , 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. (20 students)
- Visual Arts 2 (4th–8th grades) , 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.(20 students)
For a full week of arts immersion with professional instructors, there are very competitive rates, especially if you compare travel, supplies, and premium camps elsewhere.
2. Professional, Qualified Instructors
Henry Arts Alliance isn’t just tossing crayons at the kids: the “master artists” are certified teachers in the arts who guide campers through new techniques, introduce a variety of art mediums, and help children express creativity. That means your child isn’t just “doing crafts”, they’re learning art skills.
3. Diverse Visual Arts Experiences
The camp covers painting, printing, tie-dye, 3D art, and more. So the experience is far more than one art form, kids get to explore different media, which builds confidence, creativity, and curiosity. If your child loves to draw, experiment, and create, this is a perfect fit.
4. Small Groups for More Attention
Each session is capped at 20 students. Smaller groups mean more individualized attention from instructors, fewer distractions, and a better chance for each camper to shine and progress.
5. Convenient Schedule for Busy Families
With the younger group ending at noon (9:00am–12:00pm) and the older group going to 3:00pm, you get flexibility for your family schedule. The shorter morning session is perfect for younger kids; the full-day option works for older ones who thrive with more immersive time.
6. A Safe & Familiar Environment
Hosting the camp at a local church means it’s in a stable, trusted neighborhood setting (McDonough Presbyterian Church). That gives parents reassurance about safety, location familiarity, and peace of mind.
7. Builds Community and Friendships in Henry County
Because this Henry County summer arts camp is local, many campers will be fellow Henry County students, your child will make friends right here in your community, strengthening social ties and local connections. It becomes more than a camp: it’s a shared summer experience for neighbors.
8. A Great Value for Art Enrichment
Art camps often require extra fees for supplies or have hidden charges. In this case, the pricing covers a week of instruction with professional staff and a range of projects. Plus you avoid travel, fuel, or “out-of-town” premiums. In short: you get real art enrichment at a real value.
9. Builds Confidence & Creative Thinking
Beyond the fun, art camps help develop important life skills: creative problem-solving, persistence, self-expression, and confidence. Your child won’t just be “painting a picture”, they’ll be learning to imagine, plan, experiment, iterate. These are skills that carry into school and life.
The culmination of the Henry County summer arts camp week is an art show presentation where your camper will have a featured section of their own art masterpieces, building confidence in your artist.
How to Get Started
Registration opens in January for the next session. Spots are limited (20 students per group), so early registration is wise to secure a seat. When the time comes, make sure to complete the health and liability forms and bring them on day one of camp.
