Mixed Media Marvels Workshops for Kids
Boys and girls, step right up and make a mixed media masterpiece inspired by the circus-themed artwork in the exhibition Byron Burford: Ringmaster. To celebrate National Children’s Day, we’re hosting two mixed media workshops for children. 10am: Kids 4-10yrs (adult companion required); 1pm: Kids 11+. Imagine the twists of the trapeze artist, the colorful patterns of the animals, the dancing tempo of the circus band, the glitzy costumes… And then incorporate those ideas into your acts of astonishing artistry. Rather than painting actual clowns or monkeys, you might move your pencil in the arching motion of a juggler’s hands, or tap a paint-filled brush to the rhythm of a drum over your canvas.
$5/child for CRMA members; $10/child for nonmembers.
Registration & prepayment is required for this event; contact Education Director Erin Thomas at ethomas@crma.org or 319-366-7503 to sign up.
