Art Workshop
Saturday, July 18
The Lodi Arts Foundation is sponsoring a workshop to help students craft masterpieces for the Children's Art Show. Children will work alongside a professional teaching artist to explore the official theme, sketch your ideas, and start creating their unique artwork. We provide all the necessary supplies, and you can take your project home to continue your work. Or, you can immediately submit your artwork for the Children's Art Show.
This workshop is open to children entering grades 3-12 in the Lodi School District (excluding Stockton). A $10 donation is requested for each student attending the workshop. However, there is no charge for participation in the Art Show. More information: lodiadoptachild.org/artshow>
