Bring animals to life in this imaginative mixed-media art class that blends creativity, sculpture, and sustainability!

We will use cardboard to design and build 3D animal relief portraits inspired by classic cameo-style artwork, where the subject gently pops out from a framed background.

Children will sketch their chosen animal, then cut, layer, and assemble cardboard to create depth, shape, and texture.

Once their animal portrait is complete, they’ll add color to make it pop.

Please note this class is geared toward children with or without their adult companions.
