International Art Workshops 3rd - 6th Grade

Farmstead Arts Center in Basking Ridge launches “Art ‘Round World”, an international art & crafts program that draws on the creativity of world cultures.  This 5-class workshop uses arts & crafts, artifacts, slideshows and discussions to introduce two different countries.  Students ( Grades 3 through 6) will experience an adaptation of a traditional craft and create a painting that captures their interest and curiosity for the country/culture they just explored.  Budding artists will practice basic techniques in acrylic, watercolor, collage & mixed media;  build knowledge about geography and world cultures, and grow their imaginations towards becoming engaged, informed and creative global citizens.

 Spring Session runs for 5 Saturdays:  March 15, 22, 29, April 5 and April 12.  Time:  3 pm – 4pm

Place:  Farmstead Arts Center, 450 King George Road, Basking Ridge, NJ
