Children will create their own miniature home for indoor fairies or gnomes using lots of natural and “magical” materials. They will plan, design, and build a unique structure in this fun class that puts the A for art in this highly engaging STEM project. Children will construct walls with dowels, grapevine, or reeds, then finish them by weaving and attaching fibers, raffia, and silk flowers. Children will have fun as they stretch their imaginations while using an amazing variety of materials to make decorations, furniture, gardens or other comforts and accessories. On the final day, everyone will make miniature woodland figures to enjoy and play in their new home. Students will learn to use hot glue safely with permission. This class typically sells out, register early!

Lenore Lyons believes that her superpower is making art accessible to everyone. People of all ages say they feel comfortable and have fun exploring creativity in her classes. This passion led to The Key Idea®, a large-scale community art project which uses keys to inspire big ideas. Over 7000 people ages 1-100+ have created KeyStories from across the United States which have been exhibited on Cape Cod, Boston, Chicago and Washington DC, at the Smithsonian’s Anacostia Community Museum.

A retired teacher, Lyons has developed award-winning arts education programs; in 2018 she was recognized with a VISI Award from the Cape Cod and Islands Art Educators for art education and advocacy. The Arts Foundation of Cape Cod, honored Lyons with the Social Collaboration in the Arts Award along with Harwich Junior Theater. Lenore Lyons teaches online and locally at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod and Cape Cod Museum of Art. Follow The Key Idea on Instagram, FB and YouTube. lyonslenore@gmail.com
