Art Workshop #1

Hello parents,

We had our first art workshop on Thursday morning. Everybody made it to school in time to start the first activity. Let's see if we can be even MORE on time this upcoming Thursday!

As it turns out, we will be making a few different projects, not one big one as I first thought. Our first project is a city collage. The paper we are using to make the very striking collages is interesting in itself because we experimented with graphite and did some graphite and crayon rubbings using tons of everyday materials, and are cutting our pieces out of this. It's really neat how Donnely introduces us to so many techniques and materials in just one session and they come together to make a really cool piece. Here are some photos of the workshop.
