Sleepover-inspired Dreams: Glow & Create
Tuesday, 6:00 pm
July 21 & July 28 | Ages 9-12

in , , , , ,

Class:

In this cozy, sleepover-inspired 2-week workshop, students will explore imagination and self-expression through glow-in-the-dark and mixed media art. The studio transforms into a relaxed, dimly lit space where students begin with a quick neon drawing warm-up before diving into a main project: creating a layered dream collage (moldboard). Using black paper, gel pens, fabric scraps and collage materials, students will experiment with texture, color and glowing effects to bring their ideas to life.

The session ends with a fun create your own “bedtime story”, where students make their own mini storybook to present their artwork and the imaginative worlds behind it. Students will leave with a one-of-a-kind glowing artwork and a deeper understanding of creative storytelling.

What You’ll Learn:

Students will learn how to use mixed media techniques to layer materials, create mood with color/ light and express imaginative ideas through visual storytelling.

What You’ll Leave With:

Students will leave with a unique glow-inspired mixed media artwork and a creative “story” behind their piece that reflects their imagination and personal expression.
