Constructed Form and Space is an exciting theme-based program that introduces students to essential skills, techniques and processes of three-dimensional form and space. Students will be given dynamic group instruction into the use of hand and power tools to construct sculpture from steel and wood. Through experimentation students explore many possibilities of working with these materials.
