2020 Summer Program

Antoinette Poris' book, Not a Box, is a guide book to invention. It’s young artist was master of - literaily - thinking inside and outside of boxes.

You will start with a box of boxes. And tape, glue, sticky back colors, paper tubes... and surprise materials to spark your imagination. Each day a challenge will guide work: Can you make a happy mask, a sad mask? A intergalactic pet? A miniature golf hole? A cottage and furniture for a house Elf? A musical instrument? More?

Share a parade, a play, an orchestra, a golf course, an elf village... and more.

Not a Box happy
