The fall ARK theme was “Go Green: Recycled Art.” All projects were made of reclaimed elements repurposed by the students into art. Recycled containers were made into doll-like objects; aluminum cans were cut and nailed to wood, creating ornate designs; clay was textured with found objects and adhered to old frames; and found cardboard and Styrofoam became the supports for acrylic paintings.
Enrollments are now being taken for the winter session of Art Rocks Kids art camp. The theme, “Explore Medieval Art,” includes students making their own stained glass projects with guest artist and stained glass studio owner Pat Deere. Students will also make clay dragons, drawings of imaginary castles, castles of papier-mâché, and ceramic goblets.
Classes will be held Saturdays, 9:30 A.M. to noon, January 15 - February 19, in the Mahan Center for Art and Interior Design on Williams Street. Experienced art educator Debra Irvine-Stiver will direct the program, assisted by Adrian College art education students.
Cost for the camp is $70 per student and includes all materials. The enrollment form can be found on the college website ( http://www.adrian.edu/news/11ARKwinter.pdf ). Please send a check made out to Adrian College Art Department, with the form, to Denise Hein, Office of Conferences at Adrian College, 110 S. Madison St. Adrian, MI 49221.
