Sponge Painting In-Person

Do you like process art?  Young children can have trouble painting things, but projects where the process itself makes a beautiful result are so satisfying!  During this program children will  try a Fit-It-Together sponge painting technique.  This program will also have a great math/spatial element to it, as your children will have to think about how to make all the sponge printings fit together to fill the page. We will create shape based masterpieces that will remind you of works by famous artist Piet Mondrian!  Please only register children attending this program.   

For questions about this program please contact Sheila at showarth@jvbrown.edu

This program is one of the many ways Pennsylvania Public Libraries support the PA Forward Initiative by providing basic, civic, and social literacy opportunities for learning.
