Bleeding Tissue Paper Painting Activity

Get ready to tap into your creative side at the Elmwood Park Detroit Public Library with a colorful Bleeding Tissue Paper Art Activity! Children will explore color blending and design by using water and special tissue paper to create unique, watercolor-like masterpieces. It’s a fun, hands-on way to experiment with art, imagination, and self-expression!

Info: We'll start off with colorful stories to kick off our imaginations, the first is "Blue Chicken" by Deborah Freeman; watch as we journey along with this curious chicken discovering different farmyard colors. Then will head over to "Color Blocked" by Ashley Sorenson, to help the factory keep the colors flowing.

Info: By laying and layering different colors of tissue paper, we will create a wonderful collage of colors.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
