The theme for the March classes will explore the wonderful world of illustration in the traveling exhibit, Finding Alice: Artists Exploring Wonderland featuring Abelardo Morell that showcases the drawings of many artists depicting the classic tale over time since its first printing in the 19th century. Early learners will use simple techniques to make etchings and drawings of storybook characters while older learners will use more complex etching and sketching techniques with pen, ink and watercolor to tell the tale from their own perspectives.
