Supersized Bug Sculptures – Create, Shape, and Sculpt


Get Ready to Sculpt Some Supersized Bugs!
Join us for a hands-on workshop where kids will explore the art of sculpture using white air-dry clay and wire to create their very own Supersized Bug Sculptures! This workshop combines creativity with a bit of science as we delve into the fascinating world of insects and learn how to bring them to life in a big way!

What to Expect:
In this workshop, kids will learn to shape and sculpt using white air-dry clay, supported by thin wires to create structure and delicate wings. Our friendly instructors will guide young artists through the process, from building a sturdy framework with wire to adding clay details that transform into lifelike or imaginative bug creations. Whether it's a colorful butterfly, a quirky beetle, or a completely invented bug, every sculpture will be a unique masterpiece!

Key elements of this workshop include:

  • Wire Armature Building: Learn how to create a solid structure using thin wires to shape the body and wings of their bug.

  • Clay Sculpting Techniques: Discover how to mold and shape air-dry clay to form detailed bodies, wings, and textures.
