In this class, we will investigate animal anatomy and function, starting from the inside out. The skeletons of the animals will be the basis for the armatures of our sculptures. We will look at how animals use their bodies to find food and shelter,and defend themselves from predators. We will use mostly recycled materials to create our own creatures based on the way real animals work! Ages 7 and up. Artist Becca Barnet just completed sculpting and painting elements of the SC Aquarium's "Madagascar Journey" Exhibit. Her work can be seen at the Young Contemporary Show at the City Gallery at the Waterfront for all of June and July. For more information or for help with registration, contact Mary Horton at (843) 724-5003 or mhorton@charlestonparksconservancy.org.
