Doodle Drawing, grades K-2, $200

Abrakadoodle is back, teaching a new course.  Their Doodle Drawing program teaches children how to “see” in a different way. They will concentrate on shape rather than details in this beginner-drawing course. By using identifiable shapes that children have mastered and combining them into the “big picture” they can assure the success of the program by bringing to children drawing skills they can master and use in future artwork. Included in this beginner drawing program they will help students create a unique piece of artwork by encouraging embellishing and rendering along with creating a unique frame to enhance their work. This drawing program has the unique look of Abrakadoodle in that it allows freethinking and individual creative thought.

Minimum of 4, maximum of 15

Our beloved art teacher, Mrs. Hanna, will be teaching this club.  Students will take a trip around the world and explore forgotten cultures through art.  They will learn about the craft and history of different cultures art from Australia, Africa, South America and North America.
