Program Description
SUMMARY:
Let’s set sail for the South Pacific! The people of the Polynesian islands believed that they needed to stay connected with nature in order to live comfortably. They created “Tikis”, or carvings, to connect with personifications of the forces of nature. We will think about our connections with nature and design Tiki masks for our homes.

EDUCATIONAL VALUE:
This class introduces children to Polynesian cultures, Tiki carvings, and some basic principles of mask design. They use creativity and inspiration from real Polynesian Tikis to brainstorm, sketch, plan, and create their own personal versions of these stylized faces. This program engages children in hands-on creativity as they design and draw their Tiki masks.
