    All You Can Art (Ages 4–5)

    What in the World: Nature-Inspired Forms (Ages 9–11)

    Birds, insects, mammals—we all observe and interpret the world around us differently. Abstraction is a way to visualize how we might view the world creatively. Artists will create their own series of abstract sculptures, using materials such as plaster and clay that are inspired by the natural world around Hallam Lake and beyond.
