Step into a magical winter world in this hands-on EAST Kids Arts Workshop led by designer Sarah Jones of SANAA Design! Young artists will explore sculpture and texture by creating wall-mounted artworks inspired by winter landscapes, snow-covered forms, and imaginative icy environments.
Using clay and plaster, participants will experiment with carving, layering, and molding techniques to build dimensional wall sculptures. This workshop encourages creative thinking, sensory exploration, and an introduction to sculptural design concepts in a fun, supportive setting.
Participants will:
- Learn basic sculpting techniques using clay and plaster
- Explore texture, form, and relief sculpture
- Create a winter-inspired wall sculpture to take home
- Build confidence working with new materials and tools
All materials will be provided. No prior experience necessary—just dress to get a little messy and bring your imagination!
