CAMPS
The Newmarket School of Fine Art runs popular summer camps in the months of July and August for Youth, Teens and Adults. March Break Camp is also available during the school year for ages 6-12. The camps offer students a chance to advance their skills and appreciation for art, while at the same time learning and interacting in a supportive environment.
