"Animart" is animal inspired art! Each month this summer features a virtual workshop just for teens to explore the intersection of art & form with animals as the subject. Be creative all summer long!

This month, sculpt a friendly sloth with air dry clay. Pop up Art School will teach you how to build a sloth using basic forms and add texture to bring your sloth to life. You'll then finish your sloth with acrylic paint on wet clay. Free for teens entering grades 6-12.

• Kits for this workshop are provided by the library. You'll be notified through email about the pickup process in advance of the event.
• Printed PDF (will be emailed or provided in advance of the workshop)
