We will pair a beloved book and create our own masterpieces that are inspired by the book (so be sure to read or re-read it first!)
The selected book for this art session is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, which is more than just a book. It's a strong story that looks at racism, moral growth, and kindness through the eyes of Scout Finch, who is naive. As an important work of American writing, it has moved many people to think about society's morals and express these though through different kinds of art. Let's create our own art projects that are inspired by this classic book. Reading can go beyond the pages and become a visual and interactive experience.
Moving beyond the literal, let's create our own interpretations of To Kill a Mockingbird through abstract art. Paintings and illustrations can become a canvas for conveying the emotional landscape of the novel. Bring your art supplies and I will provide the refreshments as we create and discuss together...and brainstorm ideas for our next literary art project!
