Art Station

Once a month Megan visits the National Museum in Krakow to participate in Art Station, an English-language interactive art program. The instructor focuses on one artist, the kids review and talk about the art, and then create their own art "in the style of" the chosen artist. Or at least that is how it is supposed to work...some of the kids just do their own thing...

In the gallery learning about Andrzej Wróblewski.

Wróblewski created several paintings that look like this.

The kids are tasked with creating their own landscapes through a bus window.

Mixing colors.

At work.

Megan's window.

Finished!

The bus from front to back.





In the left-over time Megan created a toy from foam-shapes in the room.

With a Mento she demonstrates how to use the toy: the point is to move the Mento from the top to the bottom by shifting the form from left to right without dropping the Mento.

Ta-Da!
