The Old Jail Art Center children’s summer workshop registration is happening now with a deadline date set for Friday, July 9.

Workshops will be offered virtually this year beginning each week of August for students in first through sixth grade.

A kit will be mailed to each applicant with supplies and materials for each day of instruction.

Kits will include a password for participants to access each week’s camp video. 

Videos will be posted each morning of the workshop at 10:00 a.m. and will include step-by-step instructions demonstrated by OJAC educators.
