March 14, 2020, Saturday - Hurray for Fish! with Ellen Ferrari at MCBA

Time: 10 am – 12 noon

Location: Minnesota Center for Book Arts, 1011 Washington Ave. S. 

Hurray for Fish! with Ellen Ferrari

Get hooked on Lucy Cousins’ Hurray for Fish! and then get hooked on gyotaku – Japanese fish printing! Use newsprint, color tissue papers, paint, brushes and a wide variety of rubbery fish–from small drum to large walleye. Have a chance to try gyotaku with rice paper and a real fish, too! Join us on Saturday mornings for family book arts fun. Each workshop starts off with a story and game to warm up your creativity and then dives into book arts projects. Workshops accommodate a range of developmental levels so that adults and children can 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 a partner. Older children will receive suggestions for extending their learning. Adult/child pair: $32 (10% discount for MCBA members) + $5 supply fee; additional participants (adult or child): $16 (10% discount for MCBA members) + $2.50 supply fee.

For families with children ages 2 and up.
