Let's Paint a Mural for the Kids!

The fundraising campaign has begun! Over the past 5 months LABnormal has been working with the Frank Callen Boys & Girls Club at Kayton Homes developing a project to provide renovations to their center.

Our goal is to raise $12,000 that will go towards interior renovations and ultimately fund an exterior mural to transform their center. Please check out our indiegogo page for more information and to support our project!

Spread the message with friends and family to create as strong a community supported project as possible!

Crazy about Color!

This Friday started the second session with the 6-8 boys! We started by introducing color and the color wheel!

The boys also associated what they learned about the color wheel with clocks and created their own awesome animation! Thanks to David for helping to put them together!

Next they used primary color relationships to create secondary colors in overlapping color drawings! Their pieces were very creative and some even used folding techniques to make their work even more abstract, great job!

Thanks to Jean, Pin and David for your help with this class! Our second class with the boys will be on Tuesday, July 16, 2013, until then!

All About Color

Tuesday’s class started with introducing the color wheel and learning the primary and secondary colors.

They worked on creating signs about color and designing clock color wheels that were put together to make a clock animation!

A couple girls used their new knowledge of color theory to create portraits using complimentary colors!

Our awesome volunteer Pat helped the girls express their creativity!

It was great to see the kids use what they learned about color in their own pieces! See you on Friday!

LABnormal+ Summer Arts Program

This past week LABnormal+ was informed that its Summer Art Program had been awarded a grant from the City of Savannah’s Cultural Affairs’ Weave-A-Dream Initiative! 

The money received will provide an immeasurable amount of the support for the program as the supplies it will purchase will truly enhance the experience for the children!

We are incredibly thankful for this support and are looking forward to a successful summer program!
