Holiday Edition of Authors and Artists
a proud creator of a cut-out treeFor the December edition of the Authors and Artists Program, our little artists gathered at the Bushwick Library to create works anticipating the upcoming holiday. Jason Andrew read William Joyce's vibrant storybook Santa Calls. The kids created their own version of cut-out Christmas trees and experimented with geometry to create personalized snowflakes.
