Tide Pool Friends Puppets or Pillows
Thursday, July 3rd, 10am-12:30pm
Just for teens - get crafty with Penobscot Marine Museum! In this workshop, participants will use their creativity to make puppets or pillows inspired by Maine tide pool animals. Starting with a friendly sea star, participants will sew or glue felt pieces together creating a variety of animals such as a sea urchin, crab, or clam. Depending on the weather, this workshop will include a walk to the beach at Mosman Park for inspiration.

Sardine Can Printmaking
Thursday, July 3rd, 1:30pm-4pm
Inspired by elaborate Maine sardine can labels from the 20th century, teens will use templates or design their own sardine can. Then they will carve it into a rubber block and use the new stamp to decorate a cotton draw-string bag. This workshop will include a visit to Penobscot Marine Museum’s Sardineland exhibit.
This workshop is led by local artist and PMM Education Assistant Veronica Maresh Mead

Ocean Mini Tapestry

What do you see when you look at the ocean? Participants will recreate their views using a variety of yarns, cloth, and fibers to create an ocean tapestry. Depending on the weather, this workshop will include a walk to the beach at Mosman Park for inspiration.
This workshop is led by local artist and PMM Education Assistant Veronica Maresh Mead.

Shell Art
Thursday, July 30th, 1:30pm-4pm
Victorians loved decorating and crafting with nature and that includes using shells. This workshop will include a visit to the Penobscot Marine Museum’s Merithew House to get inspired by shell art pieces on exhibit. Then participants will create their own shell art. There will be a huge variety of shells, plus sand, seeds, and beads. Participants can choose whether they want to make a shell wreath, picture frame, sailors’ valentine, or a rectangular piece. All materials are provided.

Teens attending both morning and afternoon workshops can bring a brown bag lunch and eat it on campus or leave campus to enjoy lunch from a nearby business.
