Tater Tots Take Japan Summer Camp
Come on a cultural and art adventure as we explore Japan through the transporting lens of cooking and creating. Each day kids will cook, explore a different project or experience inspired by Japanese traditions, and feast together! All classes are co-taught by Maite Gomez-Rejon of ArtBites and educator extraordinaire, Eidelriz Senga.
The week includes 4 cooking and art making sessions and one visit to LACMAs Japanese Pavilion.
Ages 3 to 5. Registration is required as space is limited to 6 children and one accompanying adult per child. NO DROP OFF.
Each lesson will incorporate a book or movement activities as well as unusual art materials and ingredients. Heres a glimpse of the week:
Japan has a long tradition of printmaking so two days will focus on the printing traditions of woodblock and gyotaku. Gyotaku is the art of printing from fish. After looking at prints by Hokusai and other famous printers, kids will create their own prints using modern materials, including fish! And make sushi, of course.
Marbling paper, or suminagashi, has its roots in 12th century Japan. Kids will explore this tradition by creating from floating inks and experimenting with different textured papers and colored inks. This always pairs nicely with floating soba noodles with a black sesame sauce.
After looking at different forms of painting from scrolls to folding screens, kids will try their hand at the art of sumi ink brush painting using a variety of brushes on traditional rice paper. After a morning painting, making a batch of fresh matcha cookies is always in order.
Get ready to paint, sculpt, cook, and eat your way through Japan!
