Art & Animal Camp
This just isn’t any old summer camp, this is a week full of farm-filled fun! Campers will help with farm chores - like gathering farm fresh eggs from the hen house and feeding and brushing all of the animals. There will be time to meet and play with all of your new barnyard buddies as we learn lots of neat facts about them. You will also have time to create some GREAT art. Each day will feature different animals in our art projects. We will create with paint, clay, mixed media, drawing and more, which equals loads of art and loads of fun. At the end of each day the campers will hop a hayride with popsicles.
Tentative Daily Schedule:
Monday - Introductions & Chicken Day
Tuesday - Garden & Plant Day
Wednesday - Cow & Pig Day
Thursday - Donkey & Horse Day
Friday - Goats & Sheep Day
We are sure that this is the best summer camp in Atlanta! We are close to all surrounding counties, Cherokee, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton, Forsyth and Gwinnett. Just come on out and see for yourself! We are a working farm that provides an interactive and educational experience for people of all ages! You will discover the magic of farm life. We promise that if you come once, you will definitely come back again!

We love Farmer Sue & The Art barn!
Our daughters (age 8 & 10) have been going to Summer camps at the Art barn for 3 years now. Normally, my kids don’t like attending camp but they LOVE the Art barn and so happy to learn and be with the animals there. And they also came home with beautiful art pieces . Farmer Sue is super awesome, busy as she is, She literally read 3 pages “Fact about bunny” which our girl wrote and listen carefully for what the kids say to her. Farmer Sue and her team care for the kids very much. Thank you for creating such a wonderful place for these little ones.

The Art Barn is an amazing place.
My son has been in camp there this week and they went out of their way to do a date reveal on Brody receiving his service dog. HIGHLY recommended!

Our kids have been going to the Art Barn camp for the past three years.
My daughter checks regularly all year long to
make sure she gets to go back again. I have seen
both my kids bloom more each year as they learn
about the ecosystem, agriculture, animals, and art.
More importantly, I have seen them build friendships, exhibit kindness and respect for others and demonstrate a genuine care for those around them,
no matter if they are furry or not. Farmer Sue and
the Art Barn Crew help everything and everyone
grow a little taller and a little brighter.
