Day 1 of ES Summer Art Camp at MST & MHE is off to an amazing start!

Campers are creating, learning, innovating, and igniting wonder through hands-on art experiences that spark imagination and joy.

We can’t wait to see what they create next! #RISDArtMatters #RISDDreamBIG #TXArtED @RISDVPA @RichardsonISD @IamBranum
