Let me introduce you to the glitter-dusted, paint-splattered state of New Jersey, a land brimming with colors so vibrant, it makes even the rainbow look like a black and white rerun! The Garden State, as it's fondly called, is a canvas to countless kids who love to dive headfirst into the flamboyant world of Arts & Crafts. Meet our imaginary character, Doodle McDazzle, a funny, googly-eyed, paintbrush-wielding critter, who hops around the city, leaving a trail of creativity wherever he goes. Doodle lives in the bustling heart of New Jersey, in a house made of Popsicle sticks, pipe cleaners, and a roof of felt paper. In the morning, he brushes his teeth with glitter toothpaste, uses a comb made of colored pencils, and eats a breakfast of crayon croissants! The children of New Jersey are just as creative as Doodle McDazzle. Armed with tubes of glue, paint pots, and a limitless imagination, they are little wizards, transforming everyday objects into magnificent art. They can turn a simple rock into a cuddly pet, a toilet paper roll into a super telescope, or even a shoebox into a spectacular spaceship! The spirit of New Jersey thrives in these young artists, their hands as busy as honey bees, their minds buzzing with creative energy. They paint the town, quite literally, with their imagination, their laughter echoing in the air. For they believe, as Doodle McDazzle often says, "Art and Crafts isn’t just about making things, it's about making things FUN!" And that's the colorful, crafty, and wonderfully wacky world of Art & Crafts in New Jersey!

For over 50 years, Frontier Camp has been dedicated to making disciples of Jesus by sharing God’s Word amidst the beauty of His creation. Since our founding in 1969, we’ve been licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services and are proudly accredited by the American Camping Association. We’re also a member of the Christian Camping and Conference Association. Our mission is to use Christian camping and outdoor recreation as a means to support local churches in fulfilling the Great Commission—evangelizing people of all ages and discipling believers toward deeper maturity in Christ. Frontier Camp offers a dual ministry: during the summer, we host a 10-week youth camp, and throughout the rest of the year, we serve as a retreat facility for churches and like-minded religious organizations. Whether through summer camps or retreats, our goal remains the same: to expose people to Christ and encourage their spiritual growth through His Word and by reflecting His character in everything we do. While we provide top-notch recreation and exciting programming, the heart of our camp is the spiritual impact, rooted in the truth of God’s inerrant Word.

I have always been passionate about art. From a young age, my parents enrolled me in art classes, and I knew that creating was the only path for me. As I grew up, I focused on ceramic lessons. I loved the clay medium and all of its possibilities. My commitment to art paid off when I was accepted into the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) for my Bachelor's degree in Fine Art (BFA). After graduating, I worked for a gallery in the Baltimore/Washington area as an art consultant. I then went back to MICA to receive my master's degree in art teaching (MAT). After graduating, I worked in Maryland public schools as an art teacher in grades K-5 for three years. When I got married and relocated to New Jersey, I opened up my own art studio and got daycare certified. I teach all media including painting, drawing, ceramics and paper mache. My students have been accepted into prestigious art schools such as Parsons, MICA and Rutgers Mason Gross, and I also offer adult art classes which many of my former college graduates join. My name is Denise and I am a proud graduate of MICA with a BFA and MAT. I am passionate about sharing my love of art with others, and I am dedicated to helping students reach their artistic goals. My art studio classes are designed to teach students all media while also helping them with college portfolio preparation. I am proud that 100% of my students who have pursued the arts have been accepted into prestigious art schools.
