Concept
Take a deep dive of discovery into the underwater world of the ocean! In this workshop, we explore sea creatures big and small, such as seahorses, jellyfish, sharks, and whales. Do fish really sleep with their eyes open? How many species of whales can we find? Which type of crab carries his house on his back? During this fun and immersive course, we answer these questions while reading ocean-themed stories that enliven our imaginations and inspire amazing underwater artworks to take home. Artistic projects include detailed ceramic seahorses, oversized jellyfish, papier mâché starfish, deep sea watercolor collages, and more!

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.
