The University of Arkansas at Little Rock Department of Art and Design will host a free residential summer intensive art camp for high school students from June 20-24.

The artWAYS 2022 camp will be provided at no cost thanks to a generous grant from the Windgate Foundation. The camp will include all art materials, meals, housing costs, and evening activities. The high school session for rising juniors and seniors will accept up to 60 students.

Students will take the following sessions: Drawing the Dynamic Figure with Robert Bean, drawing instructor; Lensless Photography with Joli Livaudais, associate professor of photography; From Start to Finish: Learn to Make Your Own Jewelry with Lydia Martin, artist-in-residence of metals; and Typographic Sculptures with Kevin Cates, professor of graphic design.

High school students may apply for the program via this link. The deadline to apply is May 1. Students who are accepted to the program will move into UA Little Rock on June 19 and depart after the camp ends on June 24.
