In this class, I'll offer some of my favorite kid art projects for us to play with. We'll make clay monsters, marbled paper, finger paintings, and much more.

FEMINIST ART HISTORY
Instructor: Lorelei Amato
Schedule TBD
11:00am-1:00pm
This class uses hands-on art projects to explore a broad view of art history, through the lens of the influential female artists of the period. Did you know that new research reveals “caveman” paintings as likely painted by women? That the first watercolor paintings were created by a woman, 60 years before the “watercolor society” was established? That Catharina van Hemessen painted the first self-portrait-at-easel? Students will learn about the techniques, ideas and cultural evolutions that defined pivotal moments of Western art through the women struggling behind the male-dominated spotlight.
suggested age: 12-16
