JOIN the ICC Youth School in preparation for this year's Carnevale di Venezia by designing, creating, and decorating your own traditional papier-mache mask. (Si dice maschera in cartapesta in italiano!)
Learn this world-famous craft from long-time ICC member Kayte Norini (of South Minneapolisʼ Powderhorn Arts and Theater fame!), who will lead this two-part workshop. At Session 1 each student will create a design for the mask and build the armature (frame) of the mask, and then cover the maskʼs surface with cartapesta. At Session 2, the mask will be dry and ready for decoration! The skyʼs the limit with color and shine and bling! Do not miss out on this truly memorable event, a hands-on, super-fun cultural learning experience for all ages.
(This event is recommended for children 8 and older.) Parent and Grandparents are welcome to listen in on the historical explanations, but we have a limited number of spaces around the mask-making table, so donʼt miss out!
Vi aspettiamo!
