April Newsletter - Rachel's Whimsical Arts

A Happy Month of April for All of Us!

There is so much happening for this month and I’m really excited to share it with you. On April 7th & 8th, there’s the RARE, (Recycled Art & Resource Expo) weekend at Allied Arts of Whatcom County in Bellingham, WA. I will be teaching two art workshops that are only a $5 supplies fee for students to register through Allied Arts: Repurpose Old Books into Art workshop, and Recycled Book Roses workshop. There’s also the RARE art exhibit on Friday night art walk (in which I’ll have a few art work up on display), and presentations. Find out more here: http://www.alliedarts.org/

Tulips & Daffodils Printing Class at MoNA!

I will be teaching a printmaking class at MoNA (Museum of Northwest Art), in La Conner, WA on Saturday, April 15th  for all ages of kids and families. This is a great way to celebrate the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival with your family and art. You’re welcome to join me, just register via MoNA.  http://www.monamuseum.org/

Kids Art!

I teach Kids Art classes with BAAY EduArts such as 3/D Sculpture Art (3-5), and Art I (k-2) at various elementary schools in Bellingham, WA. We’re on a much needed spring break for this week with the school district. I know many of us are ready for some R&R and I hope we come back feeling rejuvenated and ready to make more kid’s art. Stay tuned for more kids art in next month’s newsletter!
