Design. Build. Explore.

Teens! Join us as we brainstorm, design and build a large scale sculpture, large enough to walk through!

Livermore Valley Arts is bringing Artist in Residence Cat Judge from the Boston area for this amazing INFLATABLE SCULPTURE Project open to teens ages 13-18 during the 2023 Spring Break.

Integrating art with earth sciences, social studies, and advanced technologies, the student participants are encouraged to investigate creative process as it relates to their life experiences. Ms. Judge holds a Master of Science in Visual Studies from M.I.T. and specializes in programs that examine the intersection of “Culture and Nature”, foster community dialog and understanding; and, celebrates the capacity of young people to truthfully express their spirited common goodness through art.

This workshop is collaborative art making that will have the teens creating a meaningful work of art for their community. Three full days of creation at the Bothwell Arts Center will culminate in a Saturday event on the Bankhead Plaza, open to the community (location will be changed in case of rain).
Students will:
– Practice active listening skills
– Learn about and create public art
– Develop observation skills
-develop an understanding of relative “scale”
– Enhance model building skills
-Practice presentation skills
– Gain basic understanding of pneumatic principles
– Experience geometric shapes
– Learn about effective collaborative team building
