SUMMARY:Young DaVinci’s Kids Art Program
DESCRIPTION:Young DaVinci’s Kids Art Program\, for children ages 6 to 12\nSix Tuesdays from Tuesday\, Nov. 4th through Dec. 16 th\n3:30 – 5:00 PM in the Galleria\n$200 members\, $250 non-members\n\nThe popular Young da Vinci’s Art Academy for children ages 6 to 12 returns to Casa Belvedere for an all-new fall session! Immerse your child in the many wonderful aspects of Italian artisanship. Children will create art projects that will later be displayed in a cumulation Art Show.\n\nWeek 1: The Power of Light & Shadow – Charcoal Drawing\nStudents will explore chiaroscuro\, Da Vinci’s dramatic use of light and dark\, in a charcoal drawing of a hand\, face\, or still life. They will practice shading\, blending\, and capturing form with bold contrast.\nWeek 2: Portraits of Genius\n*New students will paint their own Mona Lisa–inspired portrait\, capturing her mysterious smile. *Returning students will create a Renaissance Mash-Up\, blending characters and scenes into imaginative portraits.\nWeek 3: The Wall & The Sky\nStudents will create a mini fresco on wood panels\, learning how Renaissance artists painted directly into wet plaster. They will paint imaginative Da Vinci skies\, filled with birds\, clouds\, and flying machines.\nWeek 4: Drawing Water with Energy\nUsing watercolor\, students will study how water moves—waves\, rivers\, and splashes—and capture its energy on paper. They will learn techniques for flow\, movement\, and blending to mimic the power of nature.\nWeek 5: Invention Workshop – Da Vinci’s Self-Propelled Car\nInspired by Leonardo’s sketches\, students will design and build their own mini-Renaissance car powered by rubber bands. They will learn about wheels\, axles\, propulsion\, and design while adding creative decorations.\nWeek 6: Art Show! \n\nRegister here!
