PROGRAMS BASED ON CURRENT ART EXHIBITS
Art exhibits can be used to interpret art concepts as well as subject matter. Teachers are encouraged to view the exhibits for age appropriateness and communicate their curriculum needs to staff prior to the trip to the Whatcom Museum. The Museum is also pleased to host self-guided tours for those teachers who would rather be their own facilitators. Pre-scheduling is encouraged for class self-guided tours as well.
Workshop: Junk Has Soul!
Saturday, April 24, 1:00-4:00 PM
Whatcom Museum Lightcatcher Studio, 250 Flora Street
$60/ $48 for Museum members
Artist Thor Myhre will guide participants to sculpt with the found object. Students will use common materials and hand tools to create unique works of art. They will learn innovative ways of integrating and attaching formerly unrelated items, making new discoveries about themselves and the world around them. Students will learn about great resources for future projects and walk away with a newfound sense of the beauty in everyday junk. Ages 8 to adult; this class is ideal for parents and children to create sculptures together! Materials are included in tuition.
