Arty Party Themes
1. Van Gogh’s Sunflowers (Ages 6 - 12)
Van Gogh is famous for his vibrant depictions of sunflowers. In this project students will create bold and beautiful flowers using oil pastels and then create a contrast background using water resist. They will also discuss looking for shapes when drawing. Each child will create their own masterpiece to take home with them.
2. Clay Animals (Ages 6 – 12)
Students will learn to work with clay and some basic techniques. Each child will create a one of a kind sculpture of their favourite animal to take home. We use air dry clay so that sculptures can go home at the end of the party.
3. Painted Tote Bags (Ages 9 – 12)
Using only the three primary colours participants will create a work of art on canvas which contains a kaleidoscope of colour. Participants will be proud to use their distinctive bags.
Directors Cut Animation Arty Party (Ages 7-12)
Lights, camera, action! Your child will sit in the director's chair to create a short animation film with his guests. We provide the equipment, supplies and expertise; you provide the creative ideas.
