Yes you CAN!
This class is all based on something I heard on the news. The food shelters need donations but if you donate cans, please see if you can include a can opener.
I will be donating can openers with an assortment of cans to local food banks. The teen/tweens will learn the art of kawaii illustration mixed with Andy Warhol's pop can art by creating fun labels for all of the cans and the can openers. They will also have the option of creating a mini pop art can painting. The painting can be do noted or can be a keepsake for doing a good thing. Although I will be purchasing 2 cans for every student that attends, I would greatly appreciate any other can donations. The food banks have been running out of supplies on a regular basis.
$250 for up to 15 teens
$275 for 15 kits with a video link
$300 for 15 kits and a live zoom
Earns 1 hour of community service
*Earn and extra 30 minutes of community service for bringing in 3 canned items to donate
Together, Leslie & I created a workshop that combined curriculum with a creative twist for my students. The models and materials presented to the students generated excitement and inspiration so they could try new things in their own construction process. The discussion about the importance of recycling gave the students something to think about. Each child completed their travel log with confidence. They are currently using them to enrich their country research assignment. The skills they learned could be used in future projects. Leslie was wonderful to work with; cooperative as well as a creative and flexible thinker. I look forward to working with her again.
