In this one day workshop, families can work together to create a stop motion short film with found objects and learn how stop motion works! This class comes from feedback from both our kiddos and parents asking for a space to learn together. We couldn't be more thrilled to provide you that space to learn!

Children must be ages 7 and up and their registration must also be paired with an adult/guardian registration.

  • COVID Requirements
    ACA instructors and students (age 5+) enrolled in our indoor, in-person classes and workshops are required to submit proof of full vaccination or negative COVID test at least three days in advance of the start of their program by completing our Student Participation Form, where they can upload a photo, scan, or digital record of your COVID vaccination card or record. 

    As an alternative, unvaccinated participants in ACA programs, events, and activities must complete and sign the above form before the beginning of the program for which they are enrolled/attending, agreeing that they will test for COVID-19, utilizing a rapid or PCR test, before each visit to ACA and will only participate in ACA's programs should they test negative. 

    Email Communication Policy
    Please note that ACA will use the email address, which you provided at registration, as our primary means of communicating with you. In registering for an ACA program, you acknowledge that ACA has permission to email you with important updates, as well as information about upcoming events, programs and exhibition opportunities. Requests to be removed from our email mailing list must be sent to info@acarts.org. 

  • We will be animating in stop motion in class! To participate, we request students bring a smartphone or tablet equipped with the “Stop Motion Studio” app. This app is completely free, and we have already done a demo for it in class. Let us know if this is not doable for your family and we will find a solution.
