A spin off of the Muddy Buddies kids ceramics class, Mucky Buddies is a non-ceramics sculpture class. We’ll make our own sculpture and art materials using mostly household items and explore different ways of creating and having fun with our homemade materials. We’ll make slime, salt dough, model magic and raid the recycle bin for project materials as well, and then sculpt all kinds of creations from monsters to holiday ornaments. Think mad-scientist meets artist. For most projects, things will get messy, so be prepared. Kids might want to create a “mad artist” notebook, to make notes on our experiments. Great for all members of the family!
Ages under 6 years will require hands on assistance of their parents or older siblings.
Each kit will contain projects for two individuals. A limited number of craft kits are available so only 2 kits per customer please.

Building Hope in collaboration with BreckCreate, learn about life drawing. While we will be drawing from life, our focus will not be on realistic replication, but on expressive mark making through gestural drawing and doodling. We’ll explore different types of drawing tools and techniques, how our emotions and thoughts come through our mark making, and we’ll do number of exercises to loosen up and allow our creative spirits to express freely. Expect some silly drawings and laughter and be ready to open your perception of what makes a drawing “good.” This class is fit for any level of artist, though for this class, it may be the beginners who will produce the sillier or “better” drawings in the group.
About the instructor: Kia Neill is native to Chicago Illinois, received her MFA from The University of California, San Diego, and relocated to Denver CO in 2014 from Houston Texas, where she was Full-time Faculty of 7 years at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston Glassell School of Art.

Building Hope, in collaboration with BreckCreate, learn about soft sculpture. Not all sculpture consists of the bronze statues you see in town, or the other stone, metal, or ceramic artworks we most often see in public spaces. Artists make sculpture from all kinds of material, even food! In this class we’ll focus on fiber and use fabric and yarn as our main sculpture material. We’ll go over some sewing and assembling strategies, embellishment, and experiment with how a flat pattern changes when transformed into a dimensional creature. Patterns for different creatures will be provided for students to use or alter..
