Children’s art workshops offered at arts center

August 28, 2012

The Ludington Area Center for the Arts will offer two Saturday children’s art workshops in late September.  The Center’s Visual Arts Committee has arranged for Fountain artist Ruth Dimmitt to lead area students in the creation of mixed media rubbings and “wood” sculpture.  The resulting “Knot Art” is a playful and expressive experience in sculpture and otherworldly landscapes and portraits.

“Cardboard Sculpture and Collage for Elementary Students” is offered on Saturday, September 22 from 1:00 to 2:30pm and is intended for students in grades K-6.  Recycled materials and other supplies will be provided.  The second workshop, “Wood Rubbings with Mixed Media” is scheduled for Saturday, September 29 from 1:00 to 2:30 and is for students in grades 5-9.  Weathered lumber and paints will be supplied.  Each workshop costs $10 per student.  To register, call the Arts Center at 231-845-2787, or stop by the office at 107 N. Harrison.  Space is limited.
