In conjunction with our Summer Reading Program: Oceans of Possibilities, this Grab and Go Art Project is perfect for grades K-5.  Create a clay fish using your imagination and creativity!  Your Grab and Go bag will include: clay, acrylic paints, newspaper to protect your work space, directions, and inspiration images.  You will also need a pencil, butter knife or clay needle, and paint brushes.  Have fun mixing your own paint colors!  Just be careful as acrylic paints can stain fabric.

Registration on our website events calendar.

Pick up anytime the library is open starting on Tuesday, August 2nd.  If you’d like, take a picture of your finished piece and email to Alexis at astarke@piermontlibrary.org we will share on our Instagram and Facebook.

Our July Create and Sip will be inspired by American artist Winslow Homer (1836 – 1910) in conjunction with our summer reading theme, Oceans of Possibilities, and the current exhibition of his work now on view through July 31st at the Metropolitan Museum of Art- Winslow Homer: Crosscurrents. 

Join Alexis Starke for a fun and relaxing (virtual) artistic evening.  Some materials, inspiration images, wine, and chocolates are included in these popular evenings.  We will be creating seascapes in acrylics and/ or watercolors.

If you have the chance, do visit the exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  The exhibition is the largest retrospective of Homer’s work in over 25 years.  Winslow Homer: Crosscurrents presents Homer’s imagery of the Atlantic world and reveals themes of racial, political, and natural conflict across his career.

Please email astarke@piermontlibrary.org with any questions.  Our projects are designed to be relaxed and beginner friendly but fun for all levels.
