Summer School – Sculptural Wild Things! Ages 5-13yrs

****We have extended the age group for this class to 5-13 years****

Develop skills in Sculpture, Drawing and Making inspired by creatures, stories, myths and legends of Mid-summer.  

This course offers the opportunity to develop drawing and mark making skills along with key sculptural concepts and ideas. Working with variety of materials including plaster, modroc, wood and recycled objects, participants will experience how materials can be manipulated and transformed into amazing sculptural creatures! Through drawing and mark making participants will develop their own style and play with how this can be applied to 3d surfaces.
