January 21, 2012, Saturday - Snow Play Family Workshop at MCBA

Time: 10:00am - noon

Location: Minnesota Center for Book Arts, 1011 Washington Avenue South

For families with children ages 2-10.

Kate Spohn's Snow Play will get us ready to build a blizzard of books. A soft fluffy snowball book... a sled book with runners... a snow fort book that sparkles in the sun... and a warm mug-of-hot-chocolate book. We provide the "snow" and you write the snow stories.

Join Ellen Ferrari for Saturday 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 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
