Join us at Whiting Library for a special hands-on art program featuring local artist Kari Storm, whose sustainable 3D cardboard art exhibit—inspired by The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe—will be on display during the program. Kari will share her creative process and show how everyday cardboard can be transformed into imaginative, three-dimensional art.

If you can imagine that a cardboard box can be something other than “just a box,” then you’ll earn your license to “Makedo”!

Thanks to Kari’s generous donation, the library will be adding Art Shaped: Sustainable 3D Art Projects to Kickstart Children’s Creativity by Darrell Wakelam and a Makedo Discovery Kit to our Library of Things. After the program, families will be able to check out the book and kit to begin making 3D cardboard art at home.

During the workshop, kids may create a cardboard mask to take home, using the library’s new Library of Things “Makedo” cardboard construction tools—made for kids to safely cut and connect cardboard. Anyone ages 7 and up is invited to participate.

This Earth Day program inspires creativity, sustainability, and imaginative thinking using low-cost, readily available materials.
