New in 2010: ANIMATION. . .Have Your Say!
60 seconds. They’ll listen, what do you want to say?
What would you say about who you are and the issues that effect you? In Al-Bustan’s animation program, campers get to participate in a half-day program in which they work together to conceive, edit and produce one minute stop-motion video Public Service Announcements. Led by digital designer Ayman Alalao, campers will explore sound and video editing, photography, sculpture, drawing, and painting.
Arabic
Language instruction is an integral part of the Camp experience. Through daily 45-minute Arabic sessions, teen campers have structured exposure to the Arabic language that focuses on practical spoken Arabic related to the topics covered in their arts program.
Music, Drama, and Art
Along with the video program, teens have other means of creative self-expression through 2-hours of music, drama, and art which are offered on a rotating weekly basis by master teaching artists.
