ABOUT THE CAMP

Where Children Don't Realize They're Learning

Some of the best learning happens when children are too busy being curious, creative, and completely in the moment to notice. Wild Hearts Art Camp is exactly that kind of experience.

Over four magical mornings, children ages 8–13 explore art-making and spend hands-on time with our gentle horses — guided by two extraordinary women who love this age group and know how to bring out the best in every child.

No prior art experience needed. No horse experience needed. Just an open heart and a love of creating.

PERFECT FOR CHILDREN WHO

Love making things | Are drawn to animals | Thrive in small groups | Need space to be themselves | Are curious about nature

A TYPICAL DAY

What Each Morning Looks Like

Every day at camp has its own rhythm — a blend of creating, connecting, and simply being on the farm. Here's a peek at how the mornings unfold.

1 Arrive & Connect

Children arrive, settle in, and say good morning to the horses. The farm sets the tone — something relaxes the moment you walk through the gate.

2 Horse Time

Guided, hands-on time with our gentle horses — grooming, leading, observing. Children discover what it means to be fully present with another living being.

3 Art Studio

Lois leads a guided art session using a different medium each day — from watercolor to sculpture. Every child works at their own pace and in their own style.

4 Share & Close

Children gather to share what they made and what they noticed. A simple, meaningful close to each morning before heading home.

TWO PILLARS OF THE EXPERIENCE

Art & Horses - Together

Each pillar of Wild Hearts Art Camp is purposeful on its own —

and extraordinary together.

CREATIVE EXPRESSION

Fine Art With Lois

Guided by nationally recognized, award-winning art educator Lois Feiner — who has been teaching art to young people since 1986 — children explore a rich variety of media across the four days. Each session is tailored to the group, meeting every child where they are creatively.

EQUINE CONNECTION

Horse Time With Stacey

Led by Stacey Bean, children spend meaningful time with our gentle, well-trained horses — grooming, leading, and simply being with them. Horses have a remarkable ability to help children slow down, feel safe, and discover something quiet and true about themselves.
