Fantasy Mapping: Create Your Dream Town!
Saturday, August 1, 1:30-2:30pm
REGISTER HERE
In this workshop, children will explore maps as more than just tools for navigation–they will use them as ways to represent their dreams and experiences. Families will be invited to create their own fantastical town in which they would want to live. Please bring along photos of favorite places or books to help guide and inspire the creation of their towns.

Mapping Our Identity: Stamp Making
Saturday, August 22, 12-4pm
All ages
In this communal artmaking workshop, participants will come together to embellish a map of New York City with pieces of themselves. Each participant will be invited to carve out a symbol on a stamp that represents some piece of their identity to then imprint on a location in New York City that means something to them. Participants are encouraged to take their stamps home with them, and the decorated map will be hung in Art on the Block NYC’s storefront window for public viewing.
