WildThings After School Classes are back for 2024. We have two great classes this term for ages 7-14 years. Tuesday’s class is construction based and will involve some play with the Shadow Theatre. Wednesday’s class will be 2-dimensional and we’ll be working to make mixed media artworks that tell a whole story in a single image.

This is a mixed media class focusing on 2D art making.  The purpose of the class is to explore telling a layered story in a single image.  Students will be using collage, watercolour, painting and print to pull together story/experience from their own lives and/or retell the stories and events of others.  We will start with sketching and quicker image-making to practice the concept and move on to more developed works as the term progresses.

Suitable for ages 7-14
