About this Event:

Come learn about the pop art movement and one of its leading figures, Andy Warhol, who famously used common brands and familiar objects in his work. He often took ordinary items you can find in your own kitchen–soup cans, cereal and bananas–and elevated them to the level of art.

Participants will receive stylized black and white prints of pop art objects including Campbell’s soup cans, flowers, bananas, animals, desserts, and a variety of other symbols to colorize, enhance, cut-out and layer in the manner of Andy Warhol. 

Andy Warhol also borrowed from film and popular culture, creating nostalgic imagery of actresses Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor, and playful renditions of Disney’s Mickey Mouse. Using a variety of materials––alcohol ink markers, colored pencils, crayons, metallic pens, etc.––and by layering multiple sheets of neon paper, children will have the opportunity to cultivate their own style, creating layered pop-art masterpieces to take home or share with family and friends. There will also be games, including memory and spot-the-difference cards for everyone to enjoy. 

Seats are limited so RSVP is required.
