Greenville Art Guild to present free children’s BATIK Art Class
The Greenville Art Guild is delighted to present a free children’s
BATIK ART CLASS. This was made possible by the Ami McClurkin Fund of
Darke County Foundation supporting our children’s community project and
we are very grateful to her for this opportunity to share our love of
art with children.
A brief history of Batik will be shared with the children. Then each
child, along with their care giver, if the care giver chooses to stay,
will be instructed on the method of batik. The batik will be done on
paper, using watercolor paints and masking fluid. Each child will
create an exciting-looking painting. The teacher is Sandy Cable
Barringer, an experienced teacher in all mediums and all ages.
She is our very own award winning local artist.
This event will be Saturday, June 15 at 9:30 until noon.The location
for this event will be the former junior high art room in the rear of
Memorial Hall. The Guild appreciates the Greenville Schools for
allowing us to use this wonderful space. The free batik class is for
children ages 8-14. Pre registration is required and can be done by
calling Marilyn Banks at 937-423-3630 or Carolyn Armstrong at
937-526-4192.
When registering your child, please provide us with the following
information about your child: the child’s full name, age, address, and
phone number. There is a limited amount of space available, therefore
the class participants will be filled by the call order of the pre
registration. An adult must walk the child into the art room and
sign them in and we encourage you to experience the batik painting with
your child.
The Greenville Art Guild is reaching out to the community to develop
future artists and we give thanks to our community and Ami McClurkin
for nurturing the love of art.
