The Color Feelings Studio: Summer Camp 2026

About

Where art meets emotional intelligence. Camp for ages 4–10, led by a licensed child psychologist. June 2026 · Liberty Station, San Diego. The Color Feelings Studio is a week-long summer art camp where kids ages 4–10 explore emotions through color, creativity, and hands-on art-making. Each day of camp is anchored to a color and a feeling: brave red, joyful yellow, calm blue, curious orange, building toward a full emotional palette by Friday. Led by Dr. Danessa Mayo, licensed clinical psychologist and visual artist, and founder of My Good Brain, a nonprofit dedicated to youth mental wellness through art and play. Kids leave with a portfolio of original artwork, a deeper emotional vocabulary, and the confidence to say: I can express how I feel through art. 🔴 Big feelings, bold marks. Kids explore what courage looks and feels like through expressive painting. 💛 Sunshine art, joy maps, and making something that makes them smile. 💙 Slow, intentional art-making paired with breathing and mindfulness. 🟠 Imagination wide open. Kids invent creatures, worlds, and questions. 🌈 Final artwork + family showcase. Parents invited at 11:15am to see the week's work on display. Friday is gallery day: Each camper's work is displayed and they serve as their own docent, walking family through their emotional color journey. A smock or old t-shirt that can get painted on. A labeled water bottle. A snack for the 10:30am break. Closed-toe shoes. Everything else is provided.
