Wow Animation is our creative program for children from 5 to 18 years old who are interested in the art of filmmaking and animation. After school and during school breaks, our students learn how to make a storyboard, write a script, design a puppet from clay, paper or fiber, create an animated movie, record a sound, and much more.It is a program that teaches technology, arts and crafts, storytelling, critical thinking, problem solving and collaboration in a friendly and fun environment.
With the help of our donors we are fortunate to have professional equipment and software to provide the best possible learning experience. For more information about upcoming courses please call the museum at 906-226-3911.
