Youth Art Month is a national program administered by The Council for Art Education (CFAE) each March and focuses on advocating for school art programs. Student exhibitions, public artworks, art festivals, and school events across the country raise awareness and support of the arts to local and state education officials, community leaders, and legislators.
Cobb County’s arts community encourages local youth to get creative in both visual and performing arts by offering classes and camps for young artisans year round. One of the most popular ways for kids to experience the VIBE in Cobb is through immersive summer camp programs put on by world-class arts educators. Many of these begin accepting registrations in March. Use this extensive guide to find the right summer camp or year-round class for your young artist!
