TAKEOVER! Artist-Led Workshop: Combination Creatures for Kids with Jodi Bentivegna

SATURDAY, MARCH 7 | 3-4:30 PM | AGES 4-13 | $20 ($15 for Friends of SAC)

In this collaborative exercise, known by the Dadaists as Exquisite Corpse, children will take turns drawing different sections of a creatures body on large format folded paper. When unfolded they will reveal a fun and surprising new character. We will be working with paint, markers, and collage. Each child will be able to bring home one of the pieces they helped to create. 

TAKEOVER 2020! Artists in Residence was conceived and curated by Amy Kirwin

ON VIEW FEBRUARY 1-APRIL 12, 2020
