Summer Camp 2009
This week we will dedicate our creativity to making a book of a chosen God/Goddess. The children will take a printed image (from a magazine, calendar, etc) and design an "altar book" around it. They will be able to work with a myriad of materials -- beads, felt, decorative handmade papers, gemstones, etc.) This project will encourage them to not only think about books as 3-dimensional objects, but more importantly, how to take an image of God from an magazine or calendar that is not of high quality, isolate the image of God, and then sculpt it into something with great personal meaning.
