Club offers interactive arts program at camp

SHELTON - The Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley is offering a hands-on, interactive art program at its Summer Camp.
Led by Janet Zamparo, campers have a unique opportunity to develop creative thinking and problem solving through the arts. Camp is open 6:30 a.m. - 6 p.m. weekdays.
Zamparo has worked in the field of education since 1988 when she taught for Upward Bound. More recently she became a tenured teacher for the Bridgeport Board of Education then an Associate Professor at Housatonic Community College.
In addition to classroom teaching, curriculum development, academic advising, and tutoring, Zamparo has experience in arts programming, staff development, community outreach, and institutional advancement. Her career in education is uniquely combined with her interests and professional work in the visual and performing arts. Children may attend Summer Camp for one week, all 10 weeks, or any combination. The weekly fee is $150 for 6-12 year olds and $100 for children 13-15. Additional siblings are $75 each per week.
Children may bring their own snacks and lunch or purchase food from the on-site café. Free breakfast and lunch are available for children who qualify.
