Kids Assemblage Art

  • Peoria Art Guild 203 Harrison St Peoria, IL, 61602 United States (map)

Jun 12 - 26th, 2026

Fri for 3 weeks from 5:30 - 7:30 pm

Students will look closely at the work of Louise Nevelson, known for her abstract sculptures made from cast-off pieces of wood — actual street “throwaways” — uniformly coated with black or white spray paint. Students will create their own assemblages from wood pieces and other cast-off objects on a panel.

Nevelson is credited with saying, “I think all great innovations are built on rejections.”

Ages 8-14

Art Without Boundaries Eligible

All materials are supplied by the Peoria Art Guild, but students are encouraged to bring their own "found objects" to personalize their sculptures.
