Family Art – Hopi Kachina Dolls

$10.00

Saturday, August 1: 10:00am – 11:30am

Family Art Project: Families will explore the cultural significance of Hopi Kachina Dolls as traditional carvings that represent spiritual beings, elements of nature, and community values in Hopi culture. After learning about the history and purpose of Kachina dolls, participants will create their own symbolic, nature-inspired figures using recycled and mixed-media materials. The project emphasizes storytelling, creativity, and respect for Indigenous traditions while encouraging families to reflect on the values, animals, or natural elements that are meaningful to them. This activity is educational and is not intended to replicate or appropriate authentic Hopi Kachina dolls, but rather to inspire original artwork informed by an appreciation of Hopi cultural traditions.

Materials Included: All necessary tools and materials.

Parent Requirements: Upstairs – drop off & sign in all students; pick up and sign out all students; Parents are free to stay for the class to assist your child; parents will be called to pick up their child immediately if there is an attitude or discipline issue.
