# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Summer Camp Week 1 (Ages 6-9)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 15 Jun, 2026 at 10:00 am – Fri, 19 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Summer Camp Week 1 at the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art invites young artists to explore History, Symbols & Storytelling through the rich cultural traditions of the Biloxi people. Campers begin the week by asking, Who are the local native people of Biloxi? Through map activities focused on the Gulf Coast and Mississippi, students learn about tribal history, cultural values, and the deep connection between people and place. Inspired by Southeastern symbolism, each child creates a personal “Story Shield,” designing meaningful symbols that represent their own identity.

As the week unfolds, campers examine traditional Native motifs—such as suns, animals, rivers, and spirals—before sculpting clay symbol tiles and hand-building coil pots that reflect river culture and pottery traditions. Using natural textures like burlap and shells, students explore how art connects to environment and daily life. On painting day, earth-toned palettes bring their creations to life.

The week concludes with storytelling and visual narrative. After reading an age-appropriate Tunica-Biloxi legend, campers collaborate on a large story scroll mural, celebrating the power of oral tradition and artistic expression. Through hands-on projects and thoughtful discussion, Week 1 fosters creativity, cultural appreciation, and meaningful connections to history.
