The Art Of The Read
ARTScool | Available
Children’s books spark creative art! Each class will begin with a reading of a children’s book. Students will be encouraged to describe the book’s illustrations and their relation to the story, and will then create mixed-media artwork inspired by the stories’ ideas, themes, and characters.
- Please bring a drink & snack for the mid-class break.
Students staying all day must bring a bagged lunch from home.
