AAPI Teen Art + Book Club @ El Dorado
Teens! Join us in celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month at El Dorado. Join the book discussion while creating crafts inspired by Gaman Art. This month we are reading They Called Us Enemies by George Takei. Main crafts will be bird pins made from shrink plastic (Shrinky dinks) and Japanese paper flowers made from repurposed/recycled books.
Teens can get a free copy of They Called Us Enemies at El Dorado Library’s Teen Café on April 9 at 4 PM, or anytime afterward by asking a librarian, while supplies last.
For grades 7th through 12th.
No registration necessary. While supplies last.
"The Art of Gaman": Arts and crafts created by Japanese Americans during their forced internment in U.S. camps between 1942 and 1946 which served not only as a form of self-expression, but also as quiet resistance – an assertion of humanity, beauty, and agency in the face of injustice.
