Winter is a time for reflection and celebrating the wonders we have in our lives. This season, explore the treasures of Ogden Museum of Southern Art and create one-of-a-kind artworks. During Winter Holiday Art Camp, kids will craft unique bead and embroidery creations , explore stenciling and printmaking, enhance their drawing skills with charcoal and pastel, and create collage and mixed media artworks—all inspired by Ogden Museum’s current exhibitions. Projects are fun, inventive and different each day.
Day 1 - Draw! Students will start strong by brushing up on drawing techniques and learning how to use chalk pastels. The organic art work of Gregory Saunders will inspire “blow-up” charcoal landscapes. We'll look at and play with geometric pastel variations inspired by the work of Will Henry Stevens. In addition, each day artists will have time to work on a playful holiday inspired craft project that can be gifted.
Day 2 - Sew! Artists Laurea Welton, Duyen Nguyen and Sadie Shelton use textiles and craft techniques to create delicate, yet strong works of art. This day will be filled with opportunities to draw and create magical compositions that incorporate drawing, collage, embroidery and beadwork. Don’t forget, each day also includes a playful holiday inspired craft project!
Day 3 - Print! Using printmaking techniques artists will create multiple images in different formats. We’ll explore making our own gift wrap and carving out patterns and designs inspired by works by Jeremiah Johnson and Walter Anderson. Don’t forget, each day also includes a playful holiday inspired craft project!
This is a full day event, so please bring a snack, water and lunch.
