School of the Future Project

I volunteered this summer with the School of the Future Project, also assisting with the research investigation team on how effective school programs are run. We conducted all types of art classes at Sgt. Dougherty Park in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. We worked with students from the PS 110's summer program, North Brooklyn Development Corporation.

Mola Artwork Project

First, students created their animal drawing

Then they flipped the drawing after gluing it to their first construction paper. 

Then added two more layers to create the mola effect.

Students then added the various cut up paper as pattern around the animals or sea creatures.
