Side-By-Side Studio:

Cardboard Self Portraits

Grades K-5, and an adult 18+

Tuesday, April 14th

5:30 - 7 pm

$30 /pair

Get ready to think big, bold, and brilliantly YOU! In this Side-by-Side Studio workshop for artists ages 5+ and their favorite grown-up, each participant will create a larger-than-life cardboard self-portrait bursting with personality.


Using cardboard as your base, you’ll design and build a one-of-a-kind version of yourself—then bring it to life with paper, pompoms, glitter, yarn, buttons, and so much more! Wild hair? Sparkly glasses? Superhero cape? Go for it! These creations are playful, expressive, and completely unique.

Kids and grown-ups will create alongside one another, cheering each other on and celebrating what makes each person special.


Please note: When registering, only register the child participant. One adult attends and creates alongside them.
