Dynamite Sculpture is a class where students roll up their sleeves and have freedom to explore working with their hands. Learn about three-dimensional art as we use a variety of materials, including recycled and found objects, to create fun projects such as papiermâché, relief sculpture, wood assemblage, wire mobile, plastic stabile, and cardboard construction. Some art history is discussed and used to familiarize students with current 3-D artists.

No sewing, knitting, or gluing required. Needle Felting is a process that uses barbed needles to move in and out of sheep’s wool repeatedly, interlocking the fiber together and forming a firm and dense material. Children in this class will learn the techniques required to create their own wool sculptures. We’ll go step by step to felt wool into any desired shape, creating cute wooly creatures such as lovely pets, safari animals, or undersea creatures.

Vessel, receptacle, box, trunk, basket, bag, and bucket. What comes to mind and what do these words mean to you? What do they have in common? That’s right; they’re all types of containers! This summer, come have a BLAST and learn various handbuilding clay construction techniques such as slab, coil, and sculpting while exploring the theme of containers in art and life. Students will also dive into mixed media art applications and create objects to store inside their clay creations.
