Ever wonder who made the fanciful, found-object animals aboard Noah’s Ark at the Skirball™? In this workshop, you will meet Chris Green, the creative mind behind many of the Ark’s moving sculptures and puppets—including the spindle-footed fox, the cowboy-boot rooster, and the zebras made from spinning wind turbines and electric keyboards. Go on a virtual tour of Green’s Brooklyn-based studio, see early prototypes of a few of your favorite Noah’s Ark inhabitants, and learn how to create your own kinetic animal sculpture using materials from a custom Skirball art kit.
