May 29- June 2, "Old TECH, New Art"
Kids will be exposed to technology their parents are very familiar with but that is less commonly used nowadays. We will experience how these devices work and make art out of parts that are no longer functional.
NOTE TO PARENTS: we are accepting donations of old CDs, cassette tapes, DVD tapes, floppy disks, 135 mm slides, films, overhead transparencies, LPs, corded/dial phones etc. And we would love to borrow any workable projectors, record/DVD/CD players, cassette/video recorders, cameras etc.
June 5-9, "Simple Machines"
Simple machines are low tech devices like inclined planes, levers, wedges, wheels and axles, pulleys, etc. that reduce the force needed to accomplish work. Kids will learn about these devices, build their own, and explore how they are applied in our daily lives.
June 12-16, "Land of the Rising Sun"
We will learn about and explore the art and culture of Japan. Kids will learn how to use chopsticks, make a sushi roll, fold origami, and make art inspired by artist Yayoi Kusama.
June 19-23 "Colors & Textures"
In this week we will work with two versatile materials: paper and fabric. Kids will learn how to use them as art media but also how to convert them into materials that can be used for other purposes, including construction.
June 26-30 "9 3/4"
Our most popular summer week! We will bring new projects and adventures as we explore the magical world of Harry Potter.
