Juniors on an Artistic Adventure at Corcoran Gallery of Art on May 11

corcoran-gallery-washington-dcTroop 3480 Juniors will be an Artistic Adventures Tour and Workshop at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Saturday, May 11, 2013. Girls will meet at New Carrollton Metro Station at 9:30AM. Parent pick-up is at New Carrollton Metro Station at 2PM. Juniors should be in full uniform with vest, and bring a bag lunch (no sodas, please).

Juniors will discover how artists tell us stories through their work. They will become an art detective and discover the meaning of symbols, messages, and historical references. By exploring art from many times and places, the girls will enhance their skills for identifying the elements of art and constructing narratives. The interactive tour is followed by creative storytelling and a related studio art project.

Contact Junior Troop Leader Yasmeen at yastree3 [at] hotmail [dot] com for additional information. Download the permission and email it to Sis. Yasmeen by May 10.
