SRA Offers Workshops in the School Setting...
Workshops with the traveling press are offered to children, aides and teachers.
Art engages children's senses in open-ended play and supports the development of cognitive, social-emotional and multi-sensory skills.
On-going through the school year
Offered Fall, Winter and Spring
Working with children in the school setting can be incredibly rewarding and satisfying! Our workshops explore real printmaking techniques using student-friendly materials and processes that produced fabulous results for every grade level. We travel on-site usually with the Gelli® plates, which offer magical results! We set our tables with brayers, brushes, water base paint, along with a variety of natural botanical foliage, flowers, and found objects such as feathers, string, torn cardboard, bubble wrap, etc.... Along with various paper, we bring stencils, templates, and a variety of textured elements to create the most unique, one-of-a-kind prints! We supply glue, and packing tape for image transfers as well as demonstrate a few simple techniques to inspire the kids to jump in quickly and experiment with their own ideas.
The only requirement in the classroom are tables and access to water...we bring shirts, cloth drops and do the clean up as well!
