Camp After Dark- Adult Art Camp


  • Paris Academy for the Arts 402 Lee Street Paris, TN 38242 USA (map)

Camp After Dark (Yes, it’s 6 PM. Yes, the sun is still out. Don’t worry about it.)

Ages: 18 to 108

Hours: 6pm-7:30pm

Remember the pure, unadulterated joy of hearing the camp counselor blow the whistle for arts and crafts? We’re bringing it back, but we’ve upgraded the equipment and banned the kids. Welcome to Camp After Dark, where the only requirement is your imagination.

We decided that this year we can’t let the kids have all the fun and are turning back the clock to the glory days of summer vacation. We’re talking classic camp energy, zero real-world responsibilities for a few hours, and yes... complimentary juice boxes.

Dust off your creative muscles and get ready to rotate through our high-end art mediums and explore all that PAA has to offer!

🏕️ Our Art Camp Mediums will include, but are not limited to:

  • Pottery: Time to get properly muddy. Take a turn on the wheel or try hand-building.

  • Stained Glass: The ultimate upgrade from childhood sun-catchers. Learn the incredibly cool art of cutting vibrant glass and soldering pieces together.

  • Painting & Drawing: Leave your inner perfectionist at the door. We’re slinging paint, sketching out ideas, and coloring way outside the lines.

  • Sewing: Think of it as friendship bracelets, but with a major glow-up. Master the sewing machines and play with textiles to create something awesome from scratch.

Camp Rules: No art experience required. No adult worries allowed.

Just grab a Capri Sun and let's see who can make the coolest thing before the streetlights come on!

Cost: $115

When: July 27th-31st, M-F

Where: Paris Academy for the Arts | 402 Lee Street, Paris, TN

*adults 21+ may bring an adult beverage of choice to enjoy
