Art Start Family Workshop

October 9, 2015 by Deirdre McAndrew

Art Start Family Workshop

Art Start Family Workshop. Make your way to the Seaport this Saturday for a morning of making a homemade checkerboard! Add to your family game nights with your very own masterpiece, this may even spark an interest and motivate your children to learn the game or for you to refresh your memory.

You’ll be able to choose your own colors as you design your custom made checkerboard. Your children will be happy adding to their collection of games and toys, and being able to say they made it all by themselves or with the help of their family. 

Art Start focuses on the youth of NYC through free creative workshops open to the public in different venues, inside homeless shelters, programs, and other youth agencies. Art Start is a member of the Seaport Culture District. An outdoor light-and-sound installation in Cannon’s Walk is currently featured at the South Street Seaport.

Join us this week as we explore super powers. Anyone can be a superhero. You don’t need muscles and brawn to be brave. This week you’ll be able to draw a comic that features yourself as a superhero. Afterward, make a cape using fabric and glue so that everyone can see what makes you, well, SUPER!

Art Start is a kid-friendly addition to the Seaport Culture District. This award-winning organization used creative art projects to restore the hopes of homeless youth. Art Start will partner with Rosemont Press and Arup to host Portrait Project. This entails a light-and-sound-installation in Cannon’s Walk offering an inspiring and enlightening look at the hopes and dreams of Art Start teenagers. Art start is also partnering with Fast Ashleys Studios, Anyway Reps and DCOY Studios.

The Howard Hughes Corporation recently unveiled the Seaport Culture District, a new group of partners and organizations bringing culture to Lower Manhattan. From mid-August to December, the Culture District will provide authentic NY cultural experiences through food, fashion, entertainment, art, design, history and more! This is the best way to represent the vibrant and unique bustling downtown neighborhood that we all know and love!

One of our favorite traditions is displaying our h One of our favorite traditions is displaying our holiday cards on our wall. It’s been so fun to see pictures of our friends with their kids, their 4-legged pets or a beautiful card with no pictures and a note. The hard part is deciding when to take them down. In an effort to stay connected and to keep the conversation going with the kids, I think this year we will keep them up for a while longer. Connectivity is our theme for 2021 and grateful to see friends and family on our holiday wall this year. Any traditions we should know about for the new year? Please share!
