Beautiful Mistakes

Saturday, December 1st, 2-4 pm



NARS is pleased to have artist Sara Galkin, to lead the Beautiful Mistakes Workshop on Saturday, December 1st, 2-4 pm. The workshop will take place at P.S. 1 The Bergen School 309 47th St, Brooklyn

Beautiful Mistakes is an inquiry based art program for kids. Participants will work together to make the 'beautiful mistakes' that lead to our best discoveries.
During the workshop, children and families are encouraged to stay connected to themselves throughout their personal creative process and embrace the unexpected. Participants will work with found materials and will be encouraged and supported to make mistakes and think about the total process rather than the end results. The workshop is suitable for children of all ages. NARS will provide all necessary materials and support.


Limited to 20 participants

To RSVP or for any questions about the workshop, please contact: education@narsfoundation.org or 718-768-2765.
