August 14, 2012, Tuesday - Let's Go to the Museum! Workshop with Ellen Ferrari at MCBA
Time: 10:00am-12:00pm
Location: Minnesota Center for Book Arts, 1011 Washington Avenue South
For families with children ages 2-10
Come and meet two artists in When Pigasso met Mootisse by Nina Laden. Learn to make paper with white cotton pulp, then "paint" your masterpieces with paper pulp in a rainbow of colors. Use colorful yarn and eye droppers for added artistic effects. "Art Opening" snacks will be served! Water-safe shoes are suggested.
Join Ellen Ferrari for Tuesday mornings of family book arts fun! Each workshop starts off with a story and game to warm up your creativity and then dives into a book arts project. Workshops accommodate a range of developmental levels so that adults and children (or adult/child teams) may choose to work together or side-by-side. Each participant receives supplies to use during the workshop, but may choose to bring one set home if working with his or her partner. Ellen will provide older children with suggestions for extending their learning.
$30 ($27 members) per adult/child pair; $15 ($14) each additional participant.
