Grinnell Arts Center Lower Level

Overview

Something magical is happening in our town, and your child can be part of the story! During this camp, we’re celebrating the Creatures of Grinnell public art project by bringing our own fantastical friends to life. Using paper-mâché, cardboard fabrication, and vibrant painting, campers will engineer unique puppets and develop their own legendary backstories. Your "creature" might even be invited to make its debut in a special exhibition at the Stewart Gallery! Come build a friend and leave your mark on Grinnell’s imagination
