Real Girls Do Art

As we continue to explore our place in the world there are several upcoming Council activities that will allow the girls to express themselves through various mediums. 

BROWNIES

Saturday  December 7, 2013 (10:00AM -5:00PM) @ The Crayola Factory in Easton, PA

The Crayola Factory in Easton, PA is an opportunity for the Brownies to gather with sister Girl Scouts from around the Council and enjoy the Crayola Experience! Girls will explore18 fun attractions that combine color, chemistry and technology, and discover how crayons are made in an animated show. Through hands-on projects, the brownies will create their very own marker, build with Model Magic, draw and paint! In a GSEP-exclusive program, scouts will learn about famous women artists who were leaders in their field, and their unique style of creating masterpieces. 

Workshop times vary and will be assigned 2 weeks before the program.  Each workshop last approximately 45 minutes and we will be able to explore the Factory on our own.  Depending on the workshop time, the total time for the trip, including travel time is approximately 5.5 hours. I can transport 6 girls and 1 adult and would need two additional adults to assist with transportation and supervision. 

Brown Bag Lunch

This program meets requirements of the Painting & Drawing Badges

The cost is $14.00/adult and $16.00/girl

CADETTES/JUNIORS

Saturday, December 7, 2013 - 9:00AM - 12:00 PM @ the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts

Discover how leaders with a creative vision can use art to change the world— and how art can help girls advocate for social change!  Gather with sister Girl Scouts at Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) for a leadership conference about inspiration, artistic expression, and making a social impact through art. Learn how art has helped empower women throughout history, and how Philadelphia’s Mural Arts Program has revitalized poor neighborhoods. Prepare to get your hands dirty through art projects. Hear inspiring stories from community leaders and artists, and express your dreams about issues that matter to you. Imagine new ways to use art as a powerful tool to create positive change for girls and women at home and abroad.  Workshops will relate to the “It’s Your World-Change It” Journey. An adult workshop track and lounge will be available for registrants to support creativity in girls and to help develop the next generation of women leaders. Housed in an elegant Historic Landmark building, PAFA was one of the first institutions to educate and exhibit female artists. 

This program occurs concurrently to the Brownie program at the Crayola Factory in Easton and I would need at least two adult chaperones to assist with transportation and supervision of the girls in my absence.
