Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

School-aged kids will get hands-on art experiences under the guidance of a professional educator.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Comments from hosting librarian: The instructor described the materials she brought and their origin. She had a great variety. With no samples or suggestions to work from the kids were very inventive and came up with a wide variety of unique projects on their own. They all spent the full time working on their projects and had a great time. The attendees were older and talked about recycling quite a bit. Highly recommended.
