Winter After-School Classes – Re-Mixed Media & Ceramics

By Jessie McCurdy, SBMA Teaching Artist

This winter, students ages 6–12 are invited to sign-up for two after-school classes offered at the Museum’s offsite studio art facility, the Ridley Tree Education Center at McCormick House.

On Wednesdays, January 6 – March 23, a Re-Mixed Media class, inspired by the exhibition Looking In, Looking Out: Latin American Photography, includes the following projects:

Children insert their own animal in acrylic paint within a portrait of Frida Kahlo, inspired by Lola Álvarez Bravo’s Retrato de Frida Kahlo, (ca. 1944). The project process includes color studies, underpainting, and texture building.
