Monster Stories (Ages 5-12)


Cancelled

This is a collaboration of two previously run seminars, Monster Making Workshop with Brenda Dunn and Start a Story with Timm Holmes. You will make your own clay monster figurine in the 90-minute morning portion. While it bakes to harden, you will give your creature a name, a back story and a personality. After a light lunch, together with children's author Timm Holmes you will build a story that incorporates all the creatures going on a wild adventure! Return four weeks later to pick up your limited-edition copy of a professionally printed book based on the story you created.

$60.00
