OPENING DAY, SUNDAY, JUNE 30!!!

My Sister is one of the most creative people I know. 
She teaches children to recycle, re-purpose and reuse through creative exploration. Her community has been extremely generous saving and sharing material that would have otherwise been thrown away or forgotten.
(paper twisted,woven - kids made baskets and rugs, these are coasters & mattes)

This summer she's opened A Creative Art Studio for kids in her hometown of Ossining, NY.
In addition to working with all kinds of re-cyled materials, including but not limited to various types of papers, fabrics, crayons, chalks, paints and sculptural mediums there will be weekly workshops that explore art history and art/craft techniques including print making, fabric collage, book making, simple puppet making techniques and musical enjoyment.
Tomorrow, JUNE 30, 2013 is the GRAND OPENING!!
(Free form paper bead making, this kid made some bling!)
