Animals Around the World: An Artistic Safari- Part One

Day: Wednesdays  

Starts: September 16

Last class: December 16

No classes: October 14, November 18, November 25

Time: 3:15 - 5:00

Age: 2nd-5th grade

Teacher: Grandma Kitty and Grandma Nancy

Description: Animals Around the World is an after-school voyage around the planet in search of interesting animals to sculpt in modeling clay. 

The fall semester begins with backyard and farm animals, then focuses on wildlife in North America before heading up to the Arctic Circle in time for the holidays.

For those who wish to join the expedition after winter break, the spring semester will begin with Eurasian Animals. Next will be Animals of Oceania, African Animals, Sea Animals and finally South American Animals. In between all of that, there is some fun with bugs too!

The class is offered in two parts because the earth is a big planet, and it takes two semesters to visit all the places with cool animals. Either semester can be taken independently; there are no prerequisites. There are also no limits… kids who have previously taken AATW will benefit from learning more advanced techniques and the opportunity to take their style to the next level. Beginners and veterans are welcome!

The class emphasizes artistic style while teaching technical skills. Students learn to develop their own unique vision, using instructions as guidelines rather than rules. Clay modeling is fun! Structured clay modeling with artistic outcomes is way beyond fun…. It’s Animals Around the World! 

The class is taught by two MIS grandmothers, Kitty Ordway and Nancy Lee. S

Snacks and art supplies are included. Sign up today!

Notice of cancellation must be received in writing to office@mismt.org at least two weeks before the start date. Any refund is less a $50 cancellation fee. No refund if within two weeks of the start date.
