AMA 2020 SUMMER ART CAMPS
Welcome back, Campers!We are excited to welcome our campers back to the Albany Museum of Art! Our online Camps in the Box were fun and necessary, but now we will be able to enjoy art fun in person.
We do have some safety precautions that we ask you to help with so that you and all of our campers and families stay healthy and safe.
Have fun and be safe! |

ART CAMPS IN THE BOX

The AMA is guided by two principles. We must provide a safe environment for our campers, our staff, and our families. We are guided by directives from the CDC, and from federal, state and local government. The AMA will not make up its own policies regarding these critical health and safety issues. We will rely on the science and the directives of experts. We understand that camp is not something that easily conforms to social distancing. We are in the people and human interaction industry, and summer camp is about community and interacting. We also believe most families understand some modifications are necessary as we move forward with the remainder of our summer camp sessions at the museum. |
