POLITICAL POSTERS
USING THE POWER OF ART TO CHANGE THE WORLD
(... and maybe win a contest in the process ! )
Back in the 1900’s women didn’t play basketball or hockey, they often had chaperones when going out, and they wore loooooong skirts that covered their ankles.
They also couldn’t vote!
In this exciting three-hour workshop, we’ll look at what it means to have the right to vote. We’ll examine political posters from the past, with a focus specifically on The Women’s Suffrage movement, and women’s right to vote in Washington State.
And here’s the really exciting part...
We will design our own posters and, if your child chooses to do so, they may enter their fabulous artwork in a contest sponsored by the Secretary of State. The theme is “Women’s Votes, Women’s Voices” and it honors the centennial celebration of women’s right to vote in our state.
Children must be in grades 4 or 5 in order to enter the contest (but all kids ages 7-12 are welcome in the class) and the winning art will be featured in the 2010 Washington State Voters’ Pamphlet. Approximately 3 million copies of this pamphlet will be distributed throughout the state in 2010.
How cool is that?

We’ll dabble in cadmium yellow and cerulean blue and swish around in ultramarine and emerald green. Dreamy.

MINIMALIST MORNING:
CREATE YOUR OWN ROTHKO!
Saturday morning cartoons? Not on April 10th. We’ll be busy in the studio listening to jazz and classical music, while painting magnificent “color fields” in the style of Mark Rothko. Rothko often conveyed quiet, thoughtful, emotion through large spaces of a single color. He believed in the emotional power of color and the ability of the painting to be able to exist without realistic pictures.
Oh yeah, we'll be eating plenty of donuts too. Can't get too uppity on a Saturday morning!
