When we did this class a few years ago, as Inspiration Nation, it was impressive. 2 rooms of children making art. Parents helping any child that needed it. Visiting artists sharing their work and then working side by side with children. No idea was squelched. If a child wanted to explore something, an adult was willing to help, but not take over. The energy-wow-the place was jumping!
But most of all, I was floored by the creativity those children exhibited. It's something I've never forgotten. When grownups step back and let children take the lead on a project like this, the sky's not the limit, because there is no limit! I can't wait to see what they come up with this time.
