NEW CLASSES - JANUARY 2016!!!
JANUARY 8TH - FRIDAY 10am-1pm (2pm for members)
FAMOUS ARTIST SERIES: FRIDA KAHLO
Let's start the New Year with colorful mandala art with intentions while learning about famous artist and feminist pioneer Frida Kahlo. Born in Mexico City, Frida is celebrated internationally for her uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form. Although Frida believed her work reflected her own reality, many believed her work to be surrealistic and dream-like. Frida used painting as a way to cope and transform the difficult times in her life. Although she died young, she chose to live life to the fullest despite the health adversity she faced, believing it important to really enjoy life. These are the big gifts she left behind, including dynamically beautiful artwork with great meaning. After diving into Frida's life students will have a chance to explore their own inner artist as they paint what inspires them or what they must express in the spirit of Frida. After finishing our artwork students will have the chance to view each others' work and share not only their own work, but hear each others positive thoughts and interpretations of what they see. We will find time for free play, lunch, drama games, as well as our famous popsicle time!
All projects include supplies, materials, and take home project. $50 fee/$40 for members.

WEIRD SCIENCE ART: BUBBLEOLOGY
Let's make beautiful bubble art with oil pastels, exploring the many colors refracted within a bubble while learning about the science of the molecules that create bubbles. Afterwards we can make two different types of bubble wands and catchers and go outside to test our homemade bubble concoction. Let's also test out some giant bubble rope wands to see how big we can make our bubbles. At the free bubble art table we will also have two sensory areas to play with tiny bubble foam with added colors we can mix with our hands and a bubble blowing station with straws to create many bubbles at once! We will find time to eat lunch, play theatre games, and enjoy a popsicle as well!

Students will be able to take kinetic sand home with their own recipe to continue the fun, and good news for parents…it's easy to clean up! Students will have plenty of time to enjoy finding treasures in the sand, molding their own creations, as well as explore colorful sand art at the free art table.

Beautiful and majestic with vibrant colors and symbiotic relationships among it's ocean community, we will explore how this dynamic part of our ocean works. Students will create a unique diorama of their favorite colorful creatures found in the coral reef. Startling greens, blues, yellows, and reds paint the creatures of the reefs. Scientists are learning to decipher the messages these colors convey and to see them the way fish do!
We will explore using recycled materials and paint while discussing how we can each help support the real coral reefs that have been affected by human pollution and hunting, finding hope and empowerment.
