PRINTMAKERS’ DELIGHT
In this class, students will join Steward visual arts teacher Sejal Vaywala

such as monotypes, screen-printing, linoleum carving, gelli printing,
etching and collagraphs to print in multiples to complete several
unique projects. At the end, students will leave the camp with various
masterpieces on paper, fabrics, wood, and plexiglass, and a whole new
set of skills in this wonderful art form.

Innovation Camps
ARCHITECTURE 101
Steward Middle School teacher Maria McCarthy was an architect who ran her own firm
in Arizona for 16 years before moving to Virginia and becoming a teacher. Students will
learn about proportion, scale, measurement, and craftsmanship to create and design
a building that will fit in a selected site plan. They will utilize creativity to recreate a
familiar location, like their favorite restaurant or landmark and to imagine a dream
house. Using professional-grade resources and recycled materials, campers will bring
home the miniature architectural models they create during camp.

To participate in this session, campers will need to have taken Architecture 101 summer
camp either the week before or in previous summers. This camp will extend all the
aspects of design and construction that were learned in Architecture 101. Campers
will be building scaled models made from scaled wood materials, and they will design
or replicate a building of their choice. Campers will take home a finished architectural
model. Campers will need to bring the architectural scale, metal ruler, T-square and x-acto
knife received in the previous camp.
