Juneteenth LVA Camp at Waterfront Park

Juneteenth LVA Camp at Waterfront Park

For the fourth consecutive year, Waterfront Park and Louisville Visual Art will offer a full scholarship camp in the theme of Juneteenth. The week-long summer day camp will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. from June 10 to 14. During the camp, students will be introduced to the works and history of Ed Hamilton, Muhammad Ali, and the Underground Railroad while also learning about Juneteenth and Louisville.  New this year, a Work Together Project, our campers will be joined by JCC campers on Tuesday to start a group art project, and on Thursday our Waterfront Park LVA Campers will join the JCC campers at the new Trager Family JCC for more art collaboration, camp activities and swimming in the camp pool.  Explanations of their art will be practiced throughout the week to prepare for their very own celebrational art exhibit at the end of the camp.  The camp will then conclude with a celebration art exhibit where camper’s sculptures, collages and more will be on display.
