Get ready to blast off into a week of cosmic creativity as we dive into the mysteries of space and the excitement of alien life! In this out-of-this-world workshop, young artists embark on an intergalactic adventure filled with art and imagination. We craft colorful planet mobiles using foam balls, tempera paint, and fishing line, build rocket ships from recycled materials, and dream up aliens made from clay and glow-in-the-dark paint. With creativity soaring to new heights, this fun and dynamic workshop takes students on a thrilling journey beyond the stars! Buckle up for an unforgettable cosmic art experience!

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!
