Aaron Slater, Illustrator | By Andrea Beaty | Illustrated by David Roberts Aaron Slater loves listening to stories and dreams of one day writing them himself. But when it comes to reading, the letters just look like squiggles to him, and it soon becomes clear he struggles more than his peers. When his teacher asks each child in the class to write a story, Aaron can’t get a single word down. He is sure his dream of being a storyteller is out of reach…until inspiration strikes, and Aaron finds a way to spin a tale in a way that is uniquely his. How do YOU express yourself? On August 14, we’ll combine art, movement, and storytelling to share who we are—just like Aaron Slater! This dynamic hour of fun encourages families to solve the puzzle, allowing them to create together.
The Studios at SAM – 2 to 4pm
Jewelry and Beading
Have you ever wanted to make your own jewelry? In this hands-on workshop with beading masters Carol Hoffman and Louise Gallagher, we will create our own bracelets and earrings as we learn about different techniques including beadstringing, beadweaving, kumihimo, and more!
