About this event

Ready to get creative and bring your imagination to life? Join a few NCHS art students for a fun, hands-on art class! Students will experiment with real leaves and paint to create their own colorful leaf print collages. Materials will be provided. These classes are organized by Emily Meng, a high school sophomore and recipient of multiple Scholastic Art Awards, including the CAEA/Arnini Best in Drawing Award, as well as additional honors in national and international competitions. Emily has a strong background in drawing, painting, crafting, and mural work, and she is passionate about sharing creative, hands-on experiences with young students.
