Learning with Art! A Homeschool Program

Please complete a separate registration for each child. Program is for children ages 6 and up. If younger kids are tagging along, parents/guardians are asked to remain in another area of the library with them while their older kiddos participate in the program.

Join us for an art lesson for home schoolers! Maria Freed will lead participants ages 6-17 in creating a work of art to be displayed in the exhibit at the Market on State Mall in Athens, OH. All materials will be provided, and a description of the art concepts explored in the program is given below:

"We will be creating inspiring images of the aurora borealis and incorporate principles of lightness/darkness value and color theory into the lesson using the chalk pastels and black paper.  Striking landscape silhouettes will stand out from beautiful shades of bright greens, blues, and purples and reflect the wonderment and awe we have when blessed with the spectacle of the Northern Lights."
