Each summer, the Science Center’s Youth Exploring Science (YES) Program’s Teens bring fun and accessible STEM learning experiences all over the St. Louis area hoping to inspire a curiosity for science and technology. This year, University City Public Library welcomes the YES Teens to the youth service department and encourages you to get hands-on with science!
At the Do Art Productions Comic Book Workshop, we will explore the different languages of comics, from the eyes, to body posture, to the actual language within speech bubbles. The workshop is interactive and very creative with little tricks and turns to keep engagement. With a dynamic pose drawing exercise you may see juggling axolotls, flying giraffes, or dabbing pandas. After seeing how easy cartooning and creative expression can be, we will generate a comic together out of the characters and creativity of the first half!

AGES 13-17
At the Do Art Acting workshop, we will learn about the different visual languages we use with our face, emotions, and body posture. From these, we will try different improv scenarios at random, and see how easy it is to ‘get into ‘character’ and tap into our creative expression through the different visual cues. We will then write our own part to act out!

AGES 13-17
At our Do Art painting workshops, we will all paint together with our own canvases and canvas paper, all paints, brushes, and canvases provided. A great time to tap into your own creations while sharing the experience and inspiration with others. We will guide through different techniques, paint mixing, shading and help with all creative inquiries.. More than one painting is encouraged and everyone will go home with stickers, and other materials to help further their creativity.
