Diorama-Lama-Ding-Dong
Taught by the Downtowners and FLY
Ages 8-10, 15 students
Friday, July 9, 2010: 6-7:30pm (one session)
Back by popular demand! It has been scientifically proven* that making dioramas is super fun and one of the very best ways
to pass an evening. Join us, then, for this workshop, wherein you’ll get the chance to further prove this truism.
The very fortunate participants in this workshop will construct dioramas with help from our good friends at FLY**. Then
we’ll write magical stories about the spaces we’ve created. If you like laughing, dioramas, ridiculous conversations, and
stories, and you are between the ages of 8 and 10, this is most likely*** the workshop for you.
* By us
** FLY is a nonprofit organization from Ypsilanti, MI that brings meaningful art making experiences to children ages 3-11. FLY
open studio sessions are an environment where children are self directed artists, and where they see themselves as art makers
in a fun and exciting place.
*** By which we mean to say: “Absolutely, without question.”
The Downtownerz are an 826michigan super group consisting of 826michigan robotiers Tyler Brubaker, Jason
DePasquale, and Doctor Sara Walker and 826michigan Program Director Amy Sumerton. They love teaching, stories, and dioramas.
This is their attempt to combine all three.
FLY is a mobile art center based out of Ypsilanti. They bring art supplies and studio staff right into community centers,
schools, and libraries to convert them into temporary art studios for children.
