Families with children six and younger are invited to create Day of the Dead themed amate-inspired artworks on November 15th from 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm. This workshop is perfect for budding illustrators! Once we create our “amate” paper using paper bags, we will draw on it using oil pastels and acrylic markers.
This workshop is free with a suggested donation of $20.
Registration is required. To register, please email [email protected].
