THE ART OF THE ALBUM COVER!

I have the opportunity to teach one of the coolest kids art day camps ever.

THE ART OF THE ALBUM COVER!

It's almost as if this workshop was designed for me to teach it, themes which are near and dear to me. Music and art, so intrinsically tied to convey a thought or feeling. Parents, these are the gems your children should know about; artistic expression, multimedia techniques, what on earth that huge round piece of black vinyl is for...crucial knowledge!

The Art of the Album Cover PA Day Camp Workshop
Friday, June 7th, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm at Museum London.

In this camp, kids will not only learn what a record is and play some, they'll create their own creative album covers! LP covers are an outlet for artistic experimentation and the visual image can sell the music inside. Young artists will gain inspiration from the exhibitions, and then work with pop icons to create personalized album covers using a variety of print media. They'll even go home with an LP inside!

Cost: $50 (supporters $45)
For children ages 5 to 12.
Call 519-661-0333 now to register.
