Due to the popularity of this class, we're going to do it again! Did you miss this adorable activity last month? Well here's your chance! Sign up today!
Decorate a round styrofoam circle with puffy paint, pompom balls, and paper confetti to make the cutest fake cake ever, then scrape it off and do it over again! Disclaimer: the finished product will not be edible nor will it be completely dry by the time you have to take it home. Please be gentle with it! Wear art-appropriate clothes. Ages 2-10. Registration Required.
In this series, we focus on process art. But what is it?
Process art is exploring art for the creative process. The focus is the joy of creating rather than a beautiful end product. Unlike traditional art projects where the goal is to create a perfect masterpiece, process art emphasizes exploration, experimentation, and expression. Children are encouraged to use various materials and techniques to create their own unique works without any set expectations or guidelines.
This style of art exploration encourages creativity and enhances problem solving skills by trial and error. When the goal is to explore the creative process, there is no pressure to perform or make everything perfect. They gain the self-confidence to create without fear, and the resiliency to bounce back from mistakes.
