Millburn Teens Learn How to Sculpt

The children's department at the Millburn Public Library hosted a found sculpture workshop on Wednesday evening.  Natalie Kent led the middle school-aged budding artists through several projects.

She also encouraged to follow their passion, step-by-step, in order to create beautiful artwork.

"I used to think I couldn't draw but then I realized I could, I just had to draw the things in my head.  In the end I sculpt my drawings," said Kent.

The projects included working with chicken wire and using balloons as sculpture armatures. 

Kent has been leading workshops for kids at the library throughout the summer.  She is the daughter of childrens' librarian Pat Kent. In May, graduated from Bennington College with a degree in visual arts and theatre.

She will be leading a henna tattoo workshop for middle school aged kids at the library on Thursday 2p.m.
