Concept
Let’s build an imaginary world together! With the help of friends, we create houses, skyscrapers, planes, trains and so much more! In this workshop, we learn about different types of architecture and design styles and incorporate those into our own creations. We use mixed-media materials to bring our worlds together, like cardboard, paint, clay, foam, and glue to make a city filled with whatever they can imagine! Whether your world is in the deep of the ocean, on the moon in space, or in the green aspen trees,get ready to plan, design, and build!
Faculty
Lilian Lara
Lilian Lara is a mixed-media artist focusing on papier-mâché sculptures and costume design. Her love of outrageous pageantry and interest in the fantastical is evident in her work as she draws on her Mexican roots to create unique pieces. She believes art is an essential component to the human condition and should occupy a major space in our daily lives. To create is to communicate without words and boundaries—to be understood without explanation.

Join for a single day or the whole week! Whiz, Whoosh, Zoom! Art in Action. Get ready to move, make, and imagine! In this high-energy workshop, we explore the exciting world of motion through art. From flowing rivers and twisting roads to flying machines and spinning surprises, each day brings a new adventure. We’ll sculpt clay boats, build tunnels, fly hand-crafted kites, and create mesmerizing zoetropes. Using Ozobots, topographic maps, recycled treasures, and vibrant paints, we’ll invent whimsical machines and kinetic creations. Through sculpture, collage, and playful invention, we’ll turn movement into magic. At the end of the week, we’ll celebrate with a special gallery show featuring all our action-packed artworks!
