Learn about Dia De Los Muertos with artist Emily Guerrero and paint a sugar skull to take home!
Come to the Studio at Pontiac to learn more about Mexican culture and paint a 3D-printed sugar skull! Local artist and storyteller Emily Guerrero will lead participants in painting Sugar Skulls on a canvas while also sharing a story of its importance in Mexican culture! In this fun print-and paint-style program, paint a #D printed item with acrylic paints. Exercise your creativity and learn a little bit about where you can 3D print at the library. Limited to 20 participants.
This program was designed for 2nd grade and up, but younger children may attend if an adult/guardian/caregiver is present to assist them throughout the program. Each child in sixth grade or younger attending the program must be directly supervised and assisted by a responsible caregiver while in the Studio. Most ACPL programs welcome guests, however the Studio programs can only accommodate registered patrons and their supervising caregivers.
Space is limited: register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins.
