Contemporary Kids: Shapes, Colors, and Characters
October 22, 2023 | 10am-12pm
For children ages 4-12.
Join us for an Exhibition Tour and Paper Character Workshop inspired by the work of Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins! Our free onsite Contemporary Kids programs invite children to learn about modern and contemporary art through unique and engaging art activities.
Children will have the opportunity to explore Marman and Borins' artwork "Balancing Act" from the exhibition Three Dimensions drawing inspiration from the shapes and compositions found within the installation and paintings. The workshop will involve cutting shapes and creating 2D paper characters, imagining where and how these characters exist in the surroundings, and embarking on a Contemporary Calgary adventure to capture characters' journey through photos.
For children ages 4-12. Maximum group of 30 children, with one guardian per child.
Snacks and workshop supplies will be provided.
