In this lively improv camp with teaching artist Stephanie Trotman, campers will bring paintings, sculptures, and installations at Philbrook to life through movement, voice, and playful props. Each camper will design and create their own character mask or puppet inspired by their favorite work of art, using it to act out stories and scenes both in camp and at home. Through imagination, collaboration, and hands-on creation, campers will explore the joy of turning inspiration into performance.

About the Teaching Artist: Stephanie Trotman
Stephanie Trotman is an enthusiastic teaching artist and performer who is thrilled to be joining Camp Philbrook this summer. She has a deep love for the arts and a strong background in theatre, with experience in acting, singing, and dancing. Through performance and creative exploration, Stephanie has seen firsthand how the arts build confidence, encourage self-expression, and foster meaningful connections. She believes it is essential to expose children to the arts from a young age, as creativity helps young people develop imagination, empathy, and a sense of joy in learning. With a passion for collaboration and storytelling, Stephanie looks forward to inspiring campers to bring art to life through improvisation and creative expression in a supportive and engaging environment.

What to Expect
A day at Camp Philbrook starts in our studios, but we quickly use the whole museum: art, gardens, etc. to explore what it means to be a creative thinker and maker. Our workshops are geared towards getting messy, working together and making space for every child’s ideas.

Here are a few things to know:

1. This is a drop-off camp.
2. All campers are required to be toilet trained and able to use the toilet without adult assistance.
3. We offer Before and After-Care.*
4. All-Day campers need to bring a peanut-free lunch from home.
5. We have pretzels or Goldfish crackers as morning snack and afternoon snack built into each camp session. Campers are welcome to bring their own peanut-free snack from home if they would like.
6. We use the whole museum, which means we spend ample time outside when the weather permits. Please pack a water bottle daily and arrive wearing sunscreen and bug spray.
7. Your days at Philbrook will be filled with creative energy and fun! Please make sure to dress for mess and outdoor exploration.

*Before or After-Care
Before-Care or After-Care is offered for each week of Camp Philbrook for an additional $25 per Member Youth and $30 per Youth. With the addition of Before-Care to your AM Camp ticket, you may drop your child off as early as 7:45am. With the addition of After-Care to your PM Camp ticket, you may pick your child up as late as 5:30pm.
