Youth Metal Tooling Workshop at the Grand Marais Public Library




The Grand Marais Public Library invites children 7 – 12 and older to participate in a unique art experience— metal tooling—on Friday, November 22, 2013 at 6:00 p.m.

Shannon Cousino, education director for the Duluth Art Institute, will be conducting the workshop. Participants will create a picture frame using rolls of soft aluminum and chopsticks as the tool to draw with. The instructor will teach kids how to create texture in the metal with the chopstick and add color to the frame. Kids can also bring a special photo with them from home and crate a frame around it.

All youth should be accompanied by an adult for family time and the program length is 60 minutes.

This event is sponsored by the Grand Marais Public Library, the Arrowhead Library System and funded by money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
