For our June Family Saturday, a Seattle artist, Hillary Moore is sharing downloadable instructions for a fun mixed media ‘Wave Pattern Project” with our young audiences and their family.

‘Mixed media art’ is visual art that uses a combination of media or materials. This project uses paint, coffee filters, markers and tag board, which makes it mixed media.

Hillary combines her background in art and education with her passion in creative youth development and celebrates the playful, unexpected mindsets of young people.
