Design your own bird! Students will learn basic hand-building techniques using air-dry clay and ways to incorporate a variety of mixed-media materials from teaching artist Liz Wells. Everyone will leave with their own bird and habitat, ready for display.
This workshop is designed for students in grades 4-6.
Drop-off is between 9:15 AM – 9:30 AM in the Education Center courtyard. All students must be picked up by an adult between 12:30 PM – 12:45 PM in the same location.
The Frick occasionally photographs, films or shoots videos of program participants during activities held on the premises and publishes these photographs (and/or uses in motion pictures or videotapes) for educational and promotional purposes. If you do not want photos of your child to be taken, please let us know when you drop your child off.

When a student does not follow behavioral expectations, Frick staff will respond in accordance with the nature of the violation.
There is a zero-tolerance policy for threats or acts of physical violence. If the safety of another student or staff member is at risk, parents/guardians will be called for an immediate dismissal.
Registration fees are non-refundable if a student is sent home for disciplinary reasons.
