This will be an opportunity for young artists to use humor, playfulness, and imagination to create stories. Exploring illustration and narrative, they will use photographs of fruits and vegetables as a starting point from which to draw characters and create their own tales. Each of the participants will craft a book, which they will be invited to share with the rest of the group at the end of the workshop. Ages 7-10.
