Kids Summer Art Program - Wire Sculptures

We will be using non toxic plastic coated wire and repurposed treasures. Our medium this week is easy to bend, twist, shape and cut with regular scissors. With its vibrant colors and endless possibilities this is the perfect medium for young artists to explore their imagination and innovation. We will spend our week using our hands and minds to turn simple wire into imaginative masterpieces. Daily drop off between 8:50- 9:00am with pick up at 12:00pm. All young artists should bring a snack, water bottle and their imagination. On Friday, we welcome family and friends to see their artwork in a mini-exhibition from 11:30-12pm.
