Zoë Marr Hilliard, local visual artist and dancer, will teach two unique art workshops for kids at the Carving Studio in West Rutland.
The Sky is Not the Limit, an exploration in art inspired by winged beasts, tales of the air, and space travel.
July 6th –10th 9am-3pm
Ages 6-8 Tuition $160
Fly to the Carving Studio and Sculpture Center to discover inhabitants of the sky and beyond. From butterflies to rocket ships to the search for alien life, we will investigate both the close and the far reaches of the universe. Through theme-based sculptural projects, stories, and daily adventures, participants will simply take off!
Props! Sculpture Exploration with a Twist!
July 20th– 24th 9am-3pm
Ages 9-12 Tuition $160
This workshop will provide students with the opportunity to sample many sculptural methods and materials, with the added component of incorporating their projects into a performance at week’s end. Participants will be given the chance to try their hand at stone carving and other traditional sculptural techniques, as well as many non-traditional materials and concepts. Projects will become props, scenery, puppets, costuming, etc. for the performance of the participants’ choosing.
Students will be encouraged to fully experience the materials and develop their own sculptural style, while working together to create a cohesive final product.
