Discover the Workshop
Join this culturally-rich workshop where students create and design art projects based on traditional Mexican folk arts including pottery, weaving and paper crafts. While learning some basic Spanish, students look at various examples of artwork from regions in Mexico as well as their historic significance. Students then create their own artworks inspired by “alejibres” which are whimsical wooden toys, “hojalata” or tin artwork, “papel picado” which is a cut paper technique—plus ceramics and more! On Friday there is a celebration with a piñata for friends and families to enjoy.
This workshop is taught by a bilingual art educator who will support our English and Spanish speaking participants through the use of both languages during instruction.
El taller será dado por un profesor de artes profesional que apoyará tanto a nuestros participantes hispanoparlantes como a los que hablan inglés haciendo uso de ambos lenguajes durante la clase.
El arte de México
Únete a este taller de gran riqueza cultural en el que los estudiantes crearán y diseñarán proyectos artísticos basados en las artes populares tradicionales de México; como la cerámica, el tejido y las artesanías de papel. Mientras aprenden algo de español básico, los estudiantes observarán varios ejemplos de obras de arte de regiones de México, así como su importancia histórica. A continuación, los estudiantes crearán sus propias obras de arte inspiradas en los “alejibres” -que son juguetes de madera divertidos, la “hojalata” o las obras de arte de hojalata, el “papel picado” -que es una técnica de papel recortado- además de la cerámica y mucho más. El viernes hay una celebración con una piñata para que los amigos y las familias disfruten.
