Kinetic energy shapes the world of art! Let’s explore the forces of flight, engineer bridges, and delve into the cultural significance of the passageways we create for the mechanics of movement. We use tissue paper, dowels, and toothpicks to build structures of flight, recycled materials to develop bridges, print-making to represent significant trails, and more. By blending technology, design, and artistic expression we capture movement in creative ways from print-making to sculpture. Get ready to pioneer new paths and bring the energy of motion to life.

In this transformative workshop, we explore the importance of understanding ourselves through the lens of visual art! Students dive deep into self-discovery as they express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences creatively. Through artistic practices such as painting, drawing, and collage, we encourage young artists to reflect on their identities and share their unique stories. By engaging in thoughtful art-making, students learn to communicate their emotions and perspectives, fostering a deeper connection with themselves and others. Join us for a week of creativity and self-exploration, where visual art becomes a powerful tool for understanding who we are!

Celebrate the magic of beloved children’s books and their iconic authors through creative expression! Students channel their inner wild thing by crafting Maurice Sendak-inspired masks and joining in a lively “wild rumpus” dance. We immerse ourselves in Ezra Jack Keats’ enchanting world by creating beautiful “Snowy Day” collages and making Peter’s footprints. Step into the charming realm of Beatrix Potter as we design miniature gardens inspired by her delightful characters. By blending these familiar stories with captivating art projects, we create our own imaginative worlds. Join us for a week of fun and creativity where literature comes to life through art!
