Program Description

Event Details

Dive into Samoan culture and art as we explore the practice of Siapo making and the meaning behind some of its now popularized symbols. Participants will create clothing art very similar to styles portrayed in the popular film, Moana.

The use of paint, glue, permanent markers and some small craft pieces will be part of this craft and direct supervision of young children is required. All supplies provided while they last, please dress for mess.
