CREATING ART AT SOUTHEASTERN’S SUMMER WORKSHOP FOR KIDS
      HAMMOND -- Registration is now underway for Southeastern Louisiana University’s popular Children’s Art Workshop.
      Young artists, ages 6-13, can participate in morning or afternoon sessions of the annual summer workshop, which will be offered from July 7-17, Monday-Thursday. The morning session is scheduled for 9:30-11 a.m. and the afternoon session from 2-3:30 p.m., both at Southeastern’s Clark Hall.
      Under the supervision of visual arts professor Ronald Kennedy, students will create artwork in a variety of media based on the theme “Marine and Wildlife of Southeast Louisiana.”
      “Children will create collages, drawings, paintings, monoprints, and reliefs with Model Magic, as well as create mixed media artworks,” said Kennedy. “Older children will explore the medium of photography.”
      After seven days of art lessons, the students will participate in an Art Open House, a display and celebration of their work.
      Enrollment is limited to 75 students per session. The cost is $45 per child. Children will be enrolled on a first come, first serve basis.
      Application forms are available at Southeastern’s Division of Continuing Education, located in room 103 of the University Center on University Ave.  Payment must accompany the registration form.
