M3: Nature
July 13, 2019 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Learn how to make art with the nature found around you with guest expert Krisitn Hughes. Kristin tends the Octopus Garden down the street from Assemble. Using special sunprint paper, the kids will learn how to turn things that they find outside in nature into their own special art projects. Not only will they learn about lights and transfers, but also the gardening scene in and around the neighborhood.
M3 (Materials, Media, and Me) is Assemble’s summertime Saturday program, running from 1pm-3pm. It’s a free workshop for kids ages 5-10 to get to know the material world around them!
M3 uses an educational approach known as STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math). STEAM-based learning explores the similar ways that scientists, makers, and artists approach projects. At M3, students learn through experience as local experts guide them through the design process. Each week, a different artist or technologist will introduce a material, show students how they use the material, and lead them through a project.
