EDUCATION OMI  Saturday, October 27th Kids Art Workshop & "Trick or Treat in The Fields" Event!    ___________________________________       This Saturday we will gather around Robert Melee's, It Up sculpture to read a lively Halloween story. Witch, Witch...Come to My Party by Arden Druce is an invitation to join bizarre characters in a most unusual fancy dress party. The author, with long experience as a children's librarian, created this interactive, round-and-round story. Children will revel in Pat Ludlow's exuberant, sensual and detailed illustrations. It Up, 2008, by Robert Melee Back in the studio, we will make spooky silhouettes using black paper and white, moon-like circles. Children will cut out Halloween or night time shapes on folded paper then open to reveal a symmetrical image. Then, arrange a variety of images into a seemingly back-lit composition against the big moon background. Learn about symmetry and the difference between a silhouette and    a shadow...just in time for Halloween!           And be sure to come back from 4-6 PM for Trick or Treat in The Fields with more Halloween art making, stories and songs by the fire, and seasonal snacks! Scroll down for the details......
