Making Rabbits in Shaunavon

I spent August 12 in Shaunavon at the Grand Coteau Heritage & Cultural Centre.  Each year they host two different Kids’ Art Camp, and this year they asked that I come and facilitate a workshop for one of the days.

The roster was full with fun activities: visiting a local pottery studio, making Celtic walking sticks, painting, etc.  So, I decided to add Papiermâché to the list.  Namely, we made  Papier-mâché rabbit sculpturesphoto-51 photo-52 photo-53 photo-54.  

I had the group of twelve make the wire frames of the rabbits, stuff the frames, apply the Papier-mâché, and paint their sculpture s all in one day! They worked hard, but the end result was a dozen cute rabbits.
