About
The Atlas program is a State Library of NSW initiative designed to encourage curiosity and creativity in children aged 5-15. Join us at Newcastle City Library for Art Club, Book Lovers Club and Young Writers Club sessions!
Do you love making art? We have the perfect club for you! Atlas is a community for curious kids; join Newcastle City Library as we bring Atlas Clubs to you!
Are you ready for an inspiring art adventure? Unleash your creativity at Art Club as we explore new techniques, learn about the stories behind the art in the Library’s collections and have fun making art together.
Sessions:
Thursday 29 October | 4pm-5pm | Relief Collage
This week we’ll look at how to bring depth to pictures with relief collage. We’ll find inspiration from animals in the collection and make a relief image that pops out of the page!
Thursday 12 November | 4pm-5pm | Sculpture
Time to rifle through the recycling! Grab some materials that you can turn into an animal sculpture. We’ll even have a go at making some shaggy animal hair!
Thursday 26 November | 4pm-5pm | Assemblage
Birds in bottles and lizards in lids! This week we’ll look at animals in everyday objects. We’ll grab some objects from around the house and put them together to see what animals we can create.
Cost: Free
Ages: 5-15 years
No experience needed. All equipment provided, just bring your curiosity and creativity!
