캠프! 실수와 상상에서 나온 예술: 창의적 촉구, 예술 놀이, 성장 마인드셋

Over five fun-filled days, kids will flex their imaginations and create art from simple prompts to encourage their creativity! This is not copy-me-exactly art - every day I'll offer a new creative prompt, and we'll work together to explore those ideas in our own ways. One of the days we'll play a drawing game together. This is a five-consecutive-day version of my popular class/club, and it's very much about flexible thinking and finding joy in the unexpected ideas that surface when you allow your imagination to run free! 

You can see from class feedback that I've had many tentative artists leave my class feeling more joyful about the possibilities that can come from making a mistake. 

Sometimes those simple prompts lead to bigger ideas - for example, the listing photo shows a 6yo artist from one of my Mistakes Club classes who was so inspired by the prompt that she kept going for a long time after class was over :)


HOW IS THIS CLASS STRUCTURED?
Every day we'll start with a new art prompt - sometimes wholly offered by me, other days I ask students for their input as part of the prompt. We'll spend most of the class working, and more than likely share throughout, with dedicated sharing time at the end if need be. I highlight my hands with a second camera so students can see me demo as well as talk - but this is not about copying me, not at ALL! This is the exact opposite. Here, imagination reigns supreme!

ROUGH CLASS OUTLINE:
Day 1: we will start by looking at a couple of pages of the book Beautiful Oops by Barney Saltzberg, which highlights the beauty in using your imagination to overcome mistakes or to kick-start new ideas. We'll then move into one of my favorite drawing prompts to to create our own unique art pieces pulled from our imagination! 
Day 2: drawing prompt
Day 3: collage prompt
Day 4: folded paper prompt
Day 5: drawing game

Please note the supply list in the section below to ensure you have materials ready to go at class start (this list will also be posted in the virtual classroom)!

OUTSCHOOL RULES OF NOTE:
1) Sibling participation: please note that siblings are welcome to share a computer, but all individual learners must be registered for the class. 
2) Cameras on: I need to at the very least verify learners visually when class starts, so please ensure webcams are functioning! I also strongly prefer and recommend that cameras stay on during the class so that I know what students are doing and we are easily able to share with each other. 
3) Parents may be nearby, but need to stay offscreen.

I look forward to seeing you for this fun exploration!
