Community Calendar

The San Antonio River Foundation's summer camps at Confluence Park explore aspects of the natural environment and artistic process through daily projects, nature walks, community visits and artistic creations. This year, camps are offered for students ages 7-9 and 10-13.

Each day, students will learn about a different theme tied into the ecosystem of the river, park, and the communities that we live in. Much of the day will be spent making artwork that reflects our interest in the natural world. We will sculpt draw, and paint, work together and individually; learn to look and pay attention to things we may have overlooked before. Students should expect to spend time by the river and walking outside.
