Art Partners Works - Paper Project

Picture
These paper works were made by students at the J.L. King Center's summer Art Partners program with assistance from SAAC's Fellow Bonnie Renfroe. The students for this project ranged from ages four to fourteen. All sorts of materials were used for this paper making project including Styrofoam and paper eggs cartons, shredded fabric, string, greeting cards, magazines, and other organic materials. Renfroe's outlook on some art projects, like making paper, is that she can introduce projects the students  can make at home, using a little imagination and materials that would normally be thrown away.

Art Partners is Starkville Area Arts Council's after-school program that provides hands-on extracurricular classes to foster creativity, confidence, and exploration. Serving as many as 100+ youth per semester, this program is currently located at three sites: J.L. King Center, Council of Community Organizations (COCO), and the Starkville Public Library. Art Education 7 Outreach is based on the belief that all individuals should have equal access to arts and arts education, because it build well-rounded thinkers and problem solvers. Initiatives in this program area provide early educational opportunities, summer scholarships, and create access through public events.
