A61 Beading Around the World

Level A – All levels welcome.

Join us awhile we explore a few of the many off-loom bead weaving techniques from around the world. You will be provided with the skills to learn how to use an assortment of seed beads, thread, and a needle, and apply contemporary ideas and materials with traditional methods to construct a simple Peyote bracelet, an Ecuadorian-style netted necklace, and a Zulu-inspired love letter pen. Together we will explore creative ideas to inspire you and give you the freedom to create your own beaded art that will last a lifetime. There is a material of $35 due to the instructor on the first day of class.

Green Eggs and Ham

Students will create illustrations for the presentation of Green Eggs and Ham for the Colorado College Summer Music Festival. Drawing skills are required and a love of making art. We will focus on creating the whimsical characters created by Dr. Seuss in his entertaining story. Sam-I-Am persistently tries to get an unnamed character to try green eggs and ham at different locations and with different dining companions. Finally, near the end, the character agrees to Sam-I-Am's promptings and pleasantly discovers the dish is pretty tasty. While the orchestra performs a musical composition, a narrator reads Green Eggs and Ham, the students' illustrations are shown on a screen for the audience to view. This is a unique opportunity for young creatives and their families to enjoy. Supplies will be provided. Ages 7-11
