Recycled Art on Earth Day
Monday April 22
Time: 2-4
Participants:12 children, 6-12yrs old
Recyclables come into our homes every day—boxes, bottlecaps, catalogs, and on and on. Using them to make whatever the maker can imagine—something to look at or play with, or store in or wear—is a way of thinking, revising and expressing ideas. Children are masters at this!
Naomi Gams-Towers is a retired elementary school teacher who has led workshops using recyclables at NRPL and Blue Door Art Center. She lives in New Rochelle with her husband and their dog.
