Creativity Cook Off!
Jun 19 - 23, 2023
9AM - 3PM
Concept
Up-and-coming foodies need look no further than this enticing, dynamic workshop that explores the intersection of cuisine, creativity, culture, and clay. Students dream up their ideal menu as we create food out of clay and mixed-media materials. Menu items may include tacos, popsicles, donuts, grilled cheese, or a slice of cherry pie. We also create our very own personalized food truck out of mixed-media materials! Students design their own food truck logos, hand-printed aprons, and masterful menus. Let’s create some culinary art!

Celebrate the beginning of summer right by rooting in nature and art making.

As a celebratory finale, we feature our variety of multimedia artworks from our week spent painting, printmaking, bookmaking, handbuilding with clay, and experimenting in an exhibition! Projects include a handmade nature journal, a collaborative painting made with recycled materials, a pressed flower crown, and more!
