Decorate them using recycled objects and paint. In the afternoon, turn your creatures into a handmade comic-book zine using your own drawings, storytelling, and recycled paper.

Look at our New Brunswick Modern Graphic Design exhibition, get inspired, and practice your sketching and design skills to create your own logo, in preparation for Friday’s Art Market! Explore color choice, symbols, and mood board to develop your ideas. After experimenting, bring your design to life on t-shirts, banners, and signs.
Thursday – Collaborative Mural
Take a walk downtown to see some amazing murals made by local artists and explore Jordan Bennet’s in-gallery mural. Throughout the day, work as a team to create a unique and large mural to be displayed in the Education Centre using paint, collage, and mixed media.
