Summer Is Here!
Caldera Arts’ year-round staff grows exponentially each June, as our summer team expands the circle that embraces Caldera summer learners from July thru August. Our 2023 theme is Heart, and we’ll be bringing our hearts to Caldera every day.
This year, even as we feel the absence of one—our Founder— the land, this caldera (our namesake) of brightest blue, deepest depths, an explosion of creativity and love, fills the void with memory and legacy and a strong foundation of heart.
Caldera learners will join us on Saturday, and for so many this will be their first outdoor experience; their first time holding a camera, or a paint brush or an African drum. They will build community. They will have a safe place to take risks and fail and take risks again and learn to thrive. They will discover their voice. They will learn they can do hard things. They will become the future creative problem-solvers of the world, one new experience at a time.
