ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

Pablo Picasso created thousands of oil paintings during his life. But the work he left behind goes beyond that, including drawings, sculptures, prints, ceramics, and installations. His works even include a series of guitars made from paper boxes.

Let’s also create instruments with recycled materials. Whether our instruments have two dimensions or three, we can form a fun, crazy band!
