Join us to create some one-of-a-kind artwork!

Imagine creating an awesome art piece inspired by your favorite character, animal, object, etc. Then, there's a twist: use the shadow to create reverse stencil art inspired by it. For this craft, we will print out shadow designs to tape onto a canvas. From there you will create a piece of art by painting around that shadow. One the artwork is complete we will remove the "reverse stencil" and have an awesome, one-of-a-kind artwork!
