Eko Art Explorers engages children with the outdoors and inspires them to create artwork with recyclable materials and nature.
Children will have their imaginations sparked by books and stories and will go on eco-conscious explorations of Marcus Garvey Park. They will upcycle materials, creating artwork influenced by nature, with nature. Children will develop different art techniques as they create with diverse materials. Eko Art Explorers’ purpose is to spread love through unique creations and to give back to our local community and to our planet.
