Mixed Media: Dioramas of a Country – GRADES 3-6

Mixed Media: Dioramas of a Country
APRIL 12-16, Grades 3-6
Join us in this online class and create your own creative masterpiece of a diorama with elements from a country of your own choosing. You will develop painting, mixed media and sculpting techniques while creating backdrops and set your own amazing miniature world, of a country that you select, into a unique diorama art piece. You will research what makes that country famous and create characters and pieces that inhabit your country from paper, recycled objects and other materials. The class will all be encouraged to document their country’s stories in writing, if they choose to do so.
