Program Description

Event Details

Across tribes and cultures, Native Americans have always maintained a special relationship with animals, particularly birds. They use feathers for ceremonies, dances and religious practices and to create their regalia and healing implements. And they give them as gifts to commemorate accomplishments and significant life events. For centuries, tribes gathered feathers directly from birds culled from their ancestral lands—taking only what they needed.*

In this art class, local artist Heather Reyes will show you how to make feathers and flowers by painting with yarn.  This will provide a soothing session of creativity as you slowly work the yarn through the paint.  

About the instructor:

Heather Reyes, a wife and mom of two girls, has been a member of the Hayward Arts Council for close to 10 years.  She was drawn to the organization due to its mission to connect with the local school district in providing opportunities to students to showcase their work in their galleries.  She has taught classes at the Saturday Family days at the Parent HUB.  

This class is designed to inspire children—and their families—to embrace the joy of art, discover hidden talents, and enjoy time together.
