what is the maximun age for the photograpy? do you need to bring your own camara?
Hi Edele, There is no maximum age as such but we tend to get a lot of 13 – 15 years in our specialist summer camps. Ian says people can work with basic cameras, smart phones, ipod touch …
Hi. Can I add my 13 year olds name to the waiting list for the photography course in clontarf please.
Hi Antoinette, There are still places available on that photography camp in The Red Stables Art Centre in August. It is a fabulous course for this age group, run by one of our fulltime teachers Orla K. Just call 01 4990614 or book online anytime http://www.artzone.ie/bookings/camp-booking-and-payment/. Best regards, Paul
Hi what would a teenager need to bring to the photography summer camp? Do you supply cameras?
Thanks
Joanne
Hi Joanne, We will have a supply of digital cameras at the camp, but students are welcome to bring their own. They don’t need to bring anything, although some will bring laptops for storing, editing etc.. Regards, Paul
Hello, I wonder if children under 11 years coupled well and if group setting is created.
The groups are generally split into sub-groups by age for project activities. The Tutor, Stephanie, is a qualified Art Teacher who works full time with Artzone running a variety of structured arts camps. Best regards, Paul
Hi there

Yes Suzanne, The four camps listed are all Summer 2017 Camps. These camps have strict limits on numbers to ensure a good learning environment. You can book online https://artzone.class4kids.ie/camps or give us call on 01 4990614. Best regards, Paul
Hi
I have a 10 year son who is interested in doing the course (he’s an absolute begimner) just wondering will there be any other boys around his age
Thanks
Hi Jade, It is perfectly suitable for beginners. We get a good range of ages between 10 and 15 generally. If you give us a call 01 4990614 we can tell you the age profile of the particular camp you are interested in. Best regards, Paul
Sorry Bridget, We only run the specialist courses in our own studios at the moment. The numbers are kept small to ensure quality. It is hard to run viable camps in other venues where we have rent on top of staff and material costs. We do hope to run a Tween/ Teen Programme in The Red Stables in future. Regards, Paul
