Sizzling
Summer Fun!
When it comes to summer camp, many parents want their kids to try
something new and different, have fun with their peers, but also keep
their brains stimulated. Experts who study the brain say that
whenever you do something creative, like drawing, painting or sculpting,
you are giving your brain a terrific workout. We have all new art camps
for 2013 that are sure to give your child's brain a fun workout!

Many of you have heard of Google Art Project, a collaboration
between Google and many international museums to offer online access to
high-resolution images of artwork. The site enables visitors to virtually
tour these partner museums’ galleries and view up-close detail of each
piece of art. Users can assemble their own user gallery to compile a
virtual collection of art.
Last April, Google Art Project expanded its museum
partnerships and now it features more than 32,000 works of art. This second
iteration of the site has enhanced its search capabilities to help visitors
more easily find art by filtering their search capabilities.
Google
Art Project’s Education link offer tools and resources
for teachers and students. One tool is a
Google Art Project You Tube channel that offers lots of educational videos
including profiles of artists and museums. Many teachers are using Art
Project as a virtual field trip allowing students to “walk” the hallways of
famous museums, explore their rooms and zoom in on artwork. Some of the
museums on Art Project have lesson plans that
accompany their artwork. Whether it’s an art history, drawing or a design
class, Art Project is an obvious resource. Incorporating visual arts into
any classroom can be made fun with this tool.
