*POSTPONED* Girl Scouts Art Badge Day
POSTPONED due to COVID-19 precautionary measures and to limit required artist travel.
We apologize for the inconvenience; this program will be rescheduled.
Alabama Contemporary Art Center invites Girl Scouts of South Alabama’s Brownies and Juniors to enjoy a day full of fun in the galleries and studios as they learn the basic elements of painting and drawing.
Brownies will take a guided docent tour of the exhibitions to learn about contemporary art and how the artists communicate ideas and expresses themselves using paint. They will learn to use color, line, and shapes to express their ideas through their creations. They will then use these concepts to create a group mural to earn their Painting Badge.
Juniors will earn their Drawing badge as they learn the basics of drawing before creating landscapes to add to their very own drawing portfolio. The Downtown Mobile skyline will serve as inspiration for this fun activity that encourages the Juniors to think a bit deeper about secrets and tricks that artists use when drawing from life.
