Discover the Workshop
Let’s dig into the wonders of our planet! In this fun, hands-on workshop, young artists explore rocks, crystals, and fossils through creative projects. Kids will make textured clay fossils, paint sparkling crystal-inspired watercolors, and sculpt their own tiny mountains and volcanoes. Along the way, they’ll learn about the layers of the earth, erosion, and the swirling colors of agate slices using marbled painting techniques. Get ready to create, explore, and discover the magic of geology through art!

Hallie McQueeny
Growing up, Hallie McQueeny always wanted to be an artist. She is currently a Visual Arts teacher at Aspen Elementary School and believes in the incorporation of creativity, teamwork, and curiosity into her students’ daily lives. Her goal in education is to engage students in the classroom and empower them to carry on their creativity outside the classroom. McQueeny is excited to help students explore and develop their own style of art.
