4-H Project Spotlight - Art

The new 4-H year has begun and now is a good time to choose your projects for the 2011-2012 4-H year. We will spotlight different projects to help you with your decisions! Call the Extension Office to learn more about these projects, to find out what clubs are offering these projects, or learn how you can help with these projects. We can always use help from parents and leaders.

Art is more than just drawing pictures.

  • Palette of Fun - Explores different aspects of art media. Using the elements and principles of design, members will create art using painting, drawing, fiber, 3-D construction and more.
  • Scrapbooking and Cards - Learn how to make scrapbooks, cards, invitations, and projects using basic methods used in scrapbooking.
  • Skechbook Crossroads - This project concentrates on three areas - drawing, fiber arts, and sculpting. Learn how to incorporate these skills in art work.
  • Portfolio Pathways - Learn about painting, printing, and graphic design. Learn new ways to combine activities for new results.

Your imagination is the only thing limiting what you can do with these art projects! If you have an interest in art or art techniques please call 287-5900. We can always use adult volunteers to help with art projects. Remember, you don't have to be an expert to help with our projects!
