Tween Mask Making Workshop at Calvert Library Southern Branch

 

Local artist, Denise Weller, will present a Mask Making Workshop Thursday, October 24, 2013 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in partnership with Calvert Library. Ms. Weller has a BA in Psychology and Art and an MA in Art Therapy and is a Montessori trained teacher.  She currently teaches at Tidewater School, infusing art and science into student learning.

                                                                                                                

            Learn about the use of masks in different cultures and how to choose your personalized mask theme. Then design and create a mask that expresses you, using paints, fabric, buttons, beads, keys, feathers, hardware, watch parts, and other intriguing mixed media supplies. Mask themes explored could range from heroes to predators, from royalty to vampires, and from creatures to historical figures. Here's your chance to improve your design skills to make a stunning mask you can wear or use to decorate your room.

 

Kids in Grades 5, 6, and 7 are invited to participate. Event takes place at Calvert Library Southern Branch at Solomons, Maryland. Registration required. To register call Calvert Library at 410-326-5289 or go online to http://calvert.lib.md.us/.
