"I was struck by how positive
the students were in your class and how sincerely they complimented
one another's paintings. It was a wonderful experience for
our son to explore art in such a nurturing place." -
Parent of 7 year old
"You have such a warm and encouraging approach to teaching.
And the output from the kids is always amazing and unique.
This is our third year and we'll keep coming back."
- Parent of 8 year old
"These classes are so much more than “child care.
The experiences here foster a lifelong interest in the arts."
- Parent of 11 year old
“Supportive atmosphere that promotes creativity
and growth. Thanks!” - Parent of 14 year old
“I am amazed at what could
be accomplished in one week. The camp was structured, yet
allowed freedom for the kids to be creative, innovative
and have fun!” - Parent of 12 year old
“Davis Studio creates an environment in which each
child blossoms personally and artistically. Our daughter
was just beaming at her artists’ reception. Being able
to celebrate each artist’s work and accomplishments
with friends and family was such a lovely culmination to
the camp week.” - Parent of 6 year old
“Thanks for e-mailing the heads up about the camps.
Planning for the summer is about the farthest thing from
my mind right now (February), but when I asked the kids
at breakfast if they wanted to do another of your camps
they leapt off their stools, yelled "YES!!" and
did a little dance. So, I'm looking for a camp with two
slots for my girls.” - Parent of 6 and 7 year olds
“My daughter had a wonderful experience at art camp.
She felt such a sense of accomplishment and gained in self-confidence.
She was given just the right amount of guidance to support
her own creative ideas. Camp helped bring out her passion
for art. We love having her beautiful paintings displayed
in our home.” - Parent of 10 year old
 “To
say our son enjoyed your camp would be a great understatement.
He hung his paintings with care all over the house as soon
as he got home. He then directed several projects with his
sister, including a sand painting (thank goodness I had
some sand lying around). As he fell asleep last night, he
told me that he felt famous at the art show. He converted
our garage into an art studio this morning - he wanted to
start at 6 am, but we persuaded him to wait until 7:30.
He was disappointed that we couldn’t make it look like
your studio, but is willing to suffer for his art and so
has accepted the limitations of the garage. You did such
a great job at your camp; it was heartwarming to see how
proud all the kids were of their art – and they were
rightly so, because it was all beautiful. I am sure we’ll
be seeing you in the fall.” - Parent of 5 year
old
“Teresa Davis’ art studio offers a wide variety
of unique, fun and interesting camps. Our kids have been
attending for three years and look forward to it each year.
Teresa brings out the best there is in every budding artist.
Her upbeat and positive attitude encourage the children
to be proud of their talents and to enjoy the world of art.”
- Parent of 13 and 11 year olds
"This theater camp was one of
the finest and most fun camps in which my daughters have
participated. The week ends with the children knowing how
to put on a production from the invitations, painting backdrops,
making props and costumes to the actual performance. I would
enthusiastically recommend this camp! Your children will
be well taken care of, educated, and come away with new
friendships." - Parent of 9 year old
"My daughter has always been quiet and shy. She took
a few art classes at Davis Studio and then decided to give
theater camp a try. She was given a few small parts, and
helped with making the set and the costumes. She was completely
entertained, loved performing and felt comfortable in a
friendly and accepting atmosphere." - Parent of 8 year
old
"We were so impressed with how friendly, caring and professional
the Davis Studio staff are with the children at theater
camp. Our son had such a wonderful time learning the process
in creating a production. Most importantly he was encouraged
to express himself through acting which he loves deeply.
It is amazing that they can put together such a great play
in only a week. We can't wait to come back again." -
Parent of 7 year old
"The Fashion Design camp exceeded
both my expectations and my daughter's. The girls hit the
ground running on Monday morning and thoroughly enjoyed the
entire week." - Parent
of 11 year old
"The students had just the right amount of freedom.
There were plenty of well-structured activities to engage
and teach the girls about clothing design and sewing production
but also room for them to make decisions and use their own
creative judgments. Terrific camp!" - Parent of 10
year old
"This camp was really fun because I made friends and got
to design, sew and model what I made. It was a challenge,
and that is what made it fun. Keep doing the purses - they
were my favorite." - Camper, age 11
"During this camp I loved altering old clothing and making
it my own. I also loved designing different outfits to put
in my portfolio. This camp is a great place to express your
fashion art." - Camper, age 13
"What a wonderful, creative, confidence-building
experience." - Parent of a 12 year old
"This camp is what every child who
has ever dreamed of the world of fairies could hope to be
a part of." - Parent of 7 year old
"Fairies and Fairy Houses camp was a magical week of fairy
fun building a village, creating a gown, magic wand and wreath.
It was a wonderful, imaginative, creative and beautiful experience
for our daughter." - Parent of 8 year old
"This camp was so much fun! I
wish I had I camp like this when I was young. The teachers
provide just enough instruction to allow the children to
learn but not so much that their creativity is limited."
- Parent of 11, 9 and 7 year olds
"This is a wonderful art camp with a supportive community
feel. The campers were able to create fabulous art and to
enjoy Vermont and all it's natural beauty." - Parent
of 9 year old
"The girls loved camp! Every day they came home excited
about their projects. They created such beautiful expressions
of themselves through their art." - Parent of 9 & 7
year olds
"This camp was really great because
we got to design whatever kind of game we wanted. We got
cool boards and boxes that looked like real games when we
were done. We also got to pick out playing pieces and dice
and other stuff. My game is fun to play and the other kids
games were too."
- Camper, age 11
"What an imaginative way to connect art and design to
games - an activity that children love. I was impressed
at how professional the games all looked when they were
completed. Attending the designers fair was a great experience
because each child's game was so unique. It was a pleasure
talking to each child about his or her game and how it worked.
I know we'll be playing my son’s game at home." - Parent
of 12 year old
