Session 1: SENSE YOUR WORLD: Discovery Using the
Five Senses
REGISTER HERE
What do you notice about the world around you? How does mud feel between your fingers? Can you name the sounds of animals you hear without seeing who makes them? Our five senses- seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching- help us learn about our surroundings. In this five day art and clay camp students will use play, observation and creativity to sense the world around them and explore how their senses help them relate to people, nature, objects and the world around them. Students will hunt for different textures in nature to use in a mixed media clay sculpture, create tiles inspired by by the sounds and colors they hear and see, draw collaborative designs and pictures with your eyes closed, use their imaginations to create works of art they can relate to and more. No clay or materials will be “tasted” outside of student’s lunches and snacks. :) Let’s get muddy and sense our worlds!
