"Let's Draw A March Medley!" - Children's Drawing Workshops at Rockland Public Library
Rockland - Iditarod Dog Sled Races, the circus, St. Patrick's Day, and Spring, are the subjects children will draw this March at Rockland Public Library's ongoing drawing workshops led by Catinka Knoth. Participants follow along with Knoth as she demonstrates how to draw a variety of subjects for March. Husky dogs, mushers and dog sled teams, are motifs from the Iditarod Race in Alaska, which start March 7th this year. Papercuts of dog teams may be explored. March is also known as when 'the circus comes to town', bringing acrobats, animals, clowns, and tents to draw. St. Patrick's Day has shamrocks, St. Patrick, leprechauns, pots of gold, rainbows, and Celtic designs. The arrival of Spring gives inspiration to draw daffodils, crocuses tulips, birds, and kites.
Sponsored by the generosity of local patrons, Wendy and Keith Wellin, the workshops, for age 6 and up, are free and open to the public. Children age 10 and under should be accompanied by an adult. All materials are provided. Ongoing workshops meet every Tuesday, 4-5 pm., Community Room, Rockland Public Library, 80 Union St., hosted by Friends of Rockland Library.
