Update: the workshop below has sold out! However, they will be doing another one in May. It will be posted here as soon as the information is available!
Looking for something to do this weekend? The Art Museum of the Americas is having a Giant Kite Workshop tomorrow where:
"participants will learn about the Giant Kites tradition in Guatemala, where kites are constructed, displayed and flown to celebrate the Day of the Day (Día de los Muertos). Combining geometric patterns with figurative images depicting Mayan Culture, this time-honored tradition continues to flourish in the villages of Supango and Santiago"
The museum is located in Washington D.C. (okay not exactly in our back yard but not too far away). Admission to the museum is free and the workshop only costs $5. It is an all ages event. There is a video of the workshop on their website. Click this link for all the details:
