Concept
Art should be experienced with all five senses. This course explores how art can be touched, heard, tasted, and smelled. Together, artists create ceramic work with varying textures, recreate their favorite foods as artwork, create instruments from recycled items, and make prints from nature—to name just a few examples of projects to awaken the senses. Pack your imagination and prepare yourself for a multi-sensory art experience.

Join for a single day or the whole week! Bugs and Birds: Life Below and Above! From the tiniest beetle tunneling underground to the highest hawk circling overhead, this week takes young artists on a journey through every layer of life on Earth. We start low, sculpting clay bugs and building tiny dioramas of the hidden world beneath the rug, in the dirt, and under fallen logs. Then we climb upward, painting layered skyscapes and crafting birds, bats, and bugs that take to the air. Along the way, we study real creatures- their shapes, colors, and camouflage - and use them as inspiration for our own imaginative critters. By the end of the week, we’ve built a whole ecosystem of artwork from the ground up to the clouds! REGISTRATION: If you are interested in registering for single days, please reach out to our Registration Department at [email protected] or call 970-924-5089.
