Open-ended Art Exploration with Barbara Rucci

Barbara returns to the New Canaan Library on October 1 in collaboration with The Glass House and New Canaan Museum’s October 4 Design! We will construct dwellings from recycled materials, create wooden structures, and investigate famous sculptures through paint and collage. All ages are welcome! We will have 3 different art stations where you can explore your creativity. No registration needed, this is a drop-in program.

This program is designed for children to explore materials and ideas on their own. Parents are free to engage with other parents, or their child, as long as they are not impeding their child’s creative process. Drop-offs will not be permitted.

Barbara Rucci is passionate about two things: children and art. She is a professional graphic designer, art teacher, blogger, and mom to three creative thinkers. In 2012, she began her blog, Art Bar, a place where she explores her love of child-led art experiences and handmade things. Soon thereafter she began teaching art in her home. She is also the author of Art workshop for children : how to foster original thinking with over 30 process art experiences and Cardboard creations : open-ended exploration with recycled materials.
