Description

Press release from the Des Plaines Public Library: Wee Artistes 06.23.21 The June 26 Wee Artistes kit is inspired by artist Yayoi Kusama and her abstract, often polka dotted creations. Want to learn some more about her fascinating work? Good thing you came to the library! Our littlest art lovers can put their own abstract spin on a paper lantern using polka dots if they pick up a Wee Artistes kit starting June 26 (while supplies last).  These projects might spark a tiny light of curiousity that start the "how to" process of finding answers to questions through online resources, and DPPL has plenty!  Though our biography database on Gale in Context might be a little too meaty for our youngest readers, you can turn to National Geographic Kids database to find an article on Kusama.  Want to check out some material on Yayoi Kusama?
