School-Age Art Workshop: Tangled Christmas Ornaments

Join us for these guided art workshops for elementary-school kids, ages 6-12, presented by staff from the Decatur Area Arts Council. Each will focus on learning special techniques for creating your own art that you can take home from the program. (The themes are the same as the preschool art workshops, but more in-depth and detailed.)

Plan to wear "paint clothes" -- clothes you don't mind getting a little messy. All programs will be upstairs in the Children's Auditorium. Workshops are 45 minutes in length, with an additional 15 minutes for those who want to do a bit more on their projects.

Tangled Christmas Ornaments! Zentangle is the art of creating patterns using repeating lines and shapes. It is fun for everyone from 3 to 103. We will use line and color to create Christmas ornaments to give or keep.

Space is limited, and programs require advance registration. If you register and find you cannot attend, please let us know as soon as possible, so we can open your spot for another child. You can call the Children's Desk at 217-424-2900 ext. 5, or email us at childrens@decaturlibrary.org.

Thanks to the Friends of the Decatur Public Library for sponsoring this program!
