Art Break: Spooky Stories
Oct 28 - Nov 1, 2024
9AM - 3PM
Ages 7-10
Concept
Celebrate the longer nights of fall by diving into all things spooky! Join us as we explore eerie legends and ghostly tales from around the world. We’ll craft haunted house dioramas and design our own mythical monsters, with each activity capturing the spine-chilling fun of the season. Get ready to let your imagination run wild and create art that embodies the spirit of spookiness.
Art Breaks are an exciting program at Anderson Ranch Arts Center for kids ages 7-10. They are scheduled to complement breaks in the elementary school calendar throughout the year. Drop off and pick up will take place at the Evelyn and Martin Siegel Children’s Building, just inside the main Anderson Ranch entrance. Children should come prepared with a snack, lunch, water bottle, and appropriate apparel for a full day of art-making.

Join for a single day or the whole week! Whiz, Whoosh, Zoom! Art in Action. Get ready to move, make, and imagine! In this high-energy workshop, we explore the exciting world of motion through art. From flowing rivers and twisting roads to flying machines and spinning surprises, each day brings a new adventure. We’ll sculpt clay boats, build tunnels, fly hand-crafted kites, and create mesmerizing zoetropes. Using Ozobots, topographic maps, recycled treasures, and vibrant paints, we’ll invent whimsical machines and kinetic creations. Through sculpture, collage, and playful invention, we’ll turn movement into magic. At the end of the week, we’ll celebrate with a special gallery show featuring all our action-packed artworks! REGISTRATION: If you are interested in registering for single days, please reach out to Katie Sanders, Artistic Projects Manager, at [email protected] or call 970-924-5089.
