Art in Action: Putah Creek Fauna “Sketch or Sculpt”
March 24 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
$4 – $8
Art in Action Family Art Workshops:
The Pence Gallery invites children and their families to participate in our monthly family art workshops! Art in Action engages kids in art projects that are fun, creative, and collaborative with their family members. This is a drop-in program for ages 5-12, with no pre-registration required. Projects are designed to introduce kids to making their own artwork by experimenting with creative ideas and materials. Our resident art teacher will introduce you to the wealth of possibilities in our upstairs classroom.
How it works:
When you arrive, sign in at the front desk to pay with cash or card. There is a fee per child of $4 for Pence Members or $8 for Non-Members. A parent or adult caregiver is required to stay, but only has to pay for the project if they are also doing art. Stay as long or as short as you like over the two hour period. (Become a Member starting at $65/year and save!)
Putah Creek Fauna “Sketch or Sculpt” | Sunday, March 24, 1 – 3 PM:
Discover the animals of Putah Creek! Explore and examine a variety of taxidermy specimens, pelts, and replica skulls including beavers, raccoons, owls, and more. Create detailed illustrations and clay sculptures highlighting the unique appearance, form, and structure of each creature. This program is part one of a special collaboration with Putah Creek Council. Stay tuned for an April program on Putah Creek flora.
