In July we launched a new program: “Art & Play” for children ages 2-6. \u00a0One Monday morning each month, we’ll focus on a process-based art project. \u00a0With process art, the fun is all in the doing, and you happen to end up with an art piece at the end!<\/p>\n

For July, we focused on painting with unusual tools — all things used for cleaning!<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0\u00a0\"\"\u00a0<\/span>\"\"<\/p>\n

We had dish scrubbers, sponges, toilet bowl scrubbers, toothbrushes, mop strings. \u00a0We also used some painting sponges, but since those are made from a cleaning material, we figured that counted.<\/p>\n

We used tempera paints, so everything was washable and non-toxic.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

We covered our Studio on 4th in tarps, and let the artists paint however they wanted to using the materials on hand.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0\"\"\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0<\/span>\"\" \"\"\u00a0<\/span>\"\"<\/p>\n

Some were inventive and preferred to paint using their own bodies rather than the cleaning tools.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

We got really messy, but it was all in good fun!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At the end, all enjoyed themselves, had fun with art, and there were some really beautiful masterpieces that had been created!<\/p>\n

Please join us for our next Art & Play for ages 2-6 on Monday, August 28, 2017 at 10:30 at the Studio on 4th at Pasadena Central Library!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
