\"Caz<\/a>Calling all kids<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Cazenovia, NY – Oct. 2015) Back by popular demand, \u201cArt for Kids\u201d and \u201cLego My Library\u201d return to the Cazenovia Public Library during October.<\/p>\n

The Willow Pattern: A Story in Blue and White\u00a0kicks off the 2015 \u201cArt for Kids\u201d series.\u00a0Children ages 8-14 are invited to join Pat Hill and Jenna Wright-Martin in the Cazenovia Public Library Community Room on\u00a0Friday, October 9th\u00a0from\u00a01:30 to 3:00 pm.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the fine Chinese porcelain heavily imported to England during the late 16th\u00a0century, the \u201cWillow Pattern\u201d is an ornamental ceramic decoration popularized in 18th century England. Designed by\u00a0Thomas Minton\u00a0around 1790, the pretty and intricate design, featuring white and blue hues, has endured for over 200 years.<\/p>\n

The original decoration, created through a process called \u201ctransfer printing,\u201d required the artist\u2019s image to be etched onto a copper plate. Ink was applied to the copper and transferred onto a piece of tissue paper. The paper was then applied to the ceramic piece, transferring the image to the pottery.<\/p>\n

The traditional pattern, depicting an exotic Asian landscape, lent itself to a series of narratives that captured the imagination of the public. Set in China, the most popular tale tells the story of two star-crossed lovers. The English fable inspired an opera, a novel, and a number of children\u2019s storybooks.<\/p>\n

During the Oct. 9\u00a0program, children will examine the medium of pottery as a means of expression. Focusing on the art of drawing and storytelling, participants will have the opportunity to create a pattern that integrates elements of their own fable or legend. Using tracing paper and sharpies, they will transfer their pattern onto a Syracuse China ceramic plate to create a special keepsake.<\/p>\n

As in past years, Art for Kids participants will qualify for a chance to win a beautiful 178-piece art collection that includes just about everything an artist would need\u2014color markers, crayons, color pencils, watercolor cakes, oil pastels, acrylic paint tubes, and much more\u2014all arranged in a beautiful wooden case with adjustable trays.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss the chance to join in this fun and informative program on October 9th.\u00a0\u00a0But to ensure program quality, class size is limited.\u00a0 Stop by or call the library at 655- 9322 to reserve a spot, and keep your eyes open for details on future \u201cArt for Kids\u201d programming that are scheduled on Cazenovia Central School District half-days.<\/p>\n

Lego My Library\u00a0for children ages 3 and older and their families begins in the Library Community Room on Monday, Oct. 12\u00a0at 3:30 pm.\u00a0 Using the Library\u2019s collection of LEGO and Duplo blocks, children and their families will have the opportunity to build and create something spectacular.<\/p>\n

The Library is a place for discovery and imagination, and this building program fits that mission. Building offers children the experience of making their imaginative musings come to life.\u00a0 By introducing them to these hands-on experiences with science and math, children not only learn how to build different structures but how to also make them stronger and taller.<\/p>\n
