At Herron School of Art and Design's summer Youth Art Camp, kids age 5 – 16 will learn about visual arts through hands on experiences- including time in art studios.

Campers get the highest quality education! Herron is Indiana's only professional school of art and design. Located in the heart of Indianapolis, campers will enjoy not only the resources of Herron but the IUPUI campus and local museums and parks.
