Sunday, March 17 - KINETIC ART Presentation and Activity.

Kinetic art takes many forms; mobiles that spin and twirl, mechanical sculptures that make complex moves, pieces that walk, or paintings that appear to rotate and vibrate. Elizabeth Renault presents a program that explores a variety of kinetic art forms and highlights well-known artists who are renowned in the field of kinetic art. Following, Barb Hendricks will lead a hands-on activity - Alexander Calder: Inventor of the Mobile. Create your own mobile with a variety of materials.
