Free workshop for kids

Sunday, March 29, 2015 at 11am and 1pm (2 sessions)
River Market at Westminster Quay, 810 Quayside Drive, New Westminster, V3M 6B9

This creative photo collage workshop with photographer Kyra Kelpin taps into a child’s ideas around identity, play and regional environment. Using oneself as a subject and manipulating or reproducing our own image has long been a way that artists explore who we are and where we fit in. This workshop starts with portraiture and finishes with students exploring their image and local environment. Through a hands-on cut-and-paste method, students will build a self-portrait that represents for them their personality and the elements that they value around themselves. Cubism, collage and portraiture collide to become expressive works of art! Ideal for age 5 and up.

Sessions start at 11am and 1pm. Free! No pre-registration necessary.

ArtStarts at River Market is a free workshop series for families featuring free, fun, 45-minute arts workshops with some of the best children’s artists.
