Discover the Workshop
Uncover the hidden shapes that make our world magical! In this imaginative workshop, we dive into the amazing connection between math and art, exploring spirals, waves, and repeating patterns found in nature and design. We draw colorful Fibonacci spirals inspired by seashells and sunflowers, experiment with balance and harmony through golden ratio collages, and print bold patterns using stamps and natural objects. We paint branching fractal forests, design playful tessellations that fit together like puzzles, and create swirling ripple paintings that capture the motion of water and sound.
From simple shapes to dazzling designs, we discover how geometry sparks creativity. At the end of the week, we take home a collection of vibrant artworks that show math isn’t just numbers—it’s living, moving art!

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.
