Avenues Library: Creature Cartooning

Step into a wild world of animal doodles! Join artist, illustrator, and "A Mischief of Rats" trail designer Charlotte Eldred for a creative, uplifting session inspired by the Read to the Beat theme book, The Very Noisy House by Sally Nicholls. We will bring out the doodle in everyone by showing you how to have fun creating some fun animal friends from the book. Think elephants, frogs, rabbits, cats, and maybe even a rat! Afterward, children will get to design and create their very own vibrant characters. This workshop is a wonderful, relaxed introduction to storytelling through the power of doodling and creativity. No artistic skill is needed, just come ready with lots of enthusiasm to express yourself! For safety and due to limited space, we politely request that children are accompanied by only one adult to prevent crowding in the activity space. Please do not bring siblings to the event unless they have a pre-booked place and meet the age requirements.
