Building a Boat and Seeing it Float

Over time as children come to the studio for a weekly class, they begin to bring ideas with them from school, daily life, and important events. In this case, a young artist saved a small clear container from her snack at school with plans to use it in the after school studio.

Here the artist uses tape to secure a popsicle mast into the container.

A friend is excited to help her test the boat in a tub of water - it floats!

At the end of class we share about our creative process - in this case a demonstration is in order.

The entire group gathers to see the boat sail around the bin!
