Join us this Spring for another exciting Triton Afterschool Camp taught by Artist Mei-Ying Dell’Aquila, this time in the style of Pop Art. Pop Art captivates and connects us all through the depictions of commonplace items we all have seen; for example, foods, desserts, and other sweets! The weekly themes of this camp will include the history of Pop Art and notable artists of this style (e.g., Wayne Thiebaud), as well as the depictions of different sweet foods through acrylic painting. All levels are welcome. Materials included. Open to students ages 6 to 12. Location: Linn Studio behind Triton Museum of Art In this 6-week session camp, students will: ● Focus specifically on painting with Acrylics. ● Become appreciative of the bold, colorful, and nostalgic imaging that exists in Pop Art. ● Embark on gallery field trips and gain inspiration for their projects. Key Concepts Pop Art (“Popular” Art): “art in which commonplace objects (such as road signs, hamburgers, comic strips, or soup cans) are used as subject matter and are often physically incorporated in the work.” (definition from Merriam-Webster) All materials necessary will be provided by the Triton Museum for use during the camp. The Triton Museum may cancel a class, camp, or workshop due to weather, health, an emergency, or low attendance.
