Often times in writing, there is a specific mold you most follow, whether that be a character archetype or the way a story should be told. This course explores why those molds exist and how to break them.

n class one, we will research and talk about rainforest animals we like. We will start to draw them in class. For homework (optional), students will have instructions for how to make a book out of things at home (paper, tape, scissors, string). In class two, we will write stories for our books and illustrate them. Between class one and two I will do some research on the actual animals the participants chose and share this information. For weeks 3 and 4, we will develop a different art project that engages science and math, based on requests of the class. This class comes with “homework” projects that take 30-45 minutes between classes. Students can also do optional additional research on the science topics. Parents can contact me at amy.whitaker@nyu.edu.

A course on making knotted friendship bracelets, focused on the basics: how to make the knots, how to start/finish a bracelet, how to make stripe and Chevron patterns. Students can observe if they don’t have the materials (several ft of string in at least 2 colors) but it would be better if they can follow along.

Have you ever been curious to learn more about African art and culture? Ghana is a country in West Africa, and this two-session course will introduce you to a bit of the art and culture of Ghana by looking at Adinkra. Adinkra is a set of symbols, each with their own image and meaning — much like hieroglyphs! We will learn some of the Adinkra symbols and the sayings related to them, discuss the long history of printing adinkra symbols, explore the contemporary practice of composing poems by combining Adinkra, and then end session 1 by giving ideas for Adinkra art projects that students of all ages can do with materials at home. Session 2 will be a gallery show and tell for students to report back and show others what they have created!
