Contemporary Kids: Self Portrait Workshop

Showings

Contemporary Calgary Sun, Apr 2, 2023 12:00 PM

Description

For children ages 4-12.
Maximum group of 30 children, with one guardian per child. 
Snacks and workshop supplies will be provided.

 

Our free onsite Contemporary Kids programs invite children to learn about modern and contemporary art through unique and engaging art activities. 

 

Taking cues from Souvenirs of the Self, 1991 by Jin-me Yoon, the youth will be prompted to think about appearances, and create a self portrait that communicates how they would see themselves represented.  The portrait need not be a face, and there is freedom to explore words, symbols, images, gifs and memes.
