WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE TYSEN KNIGHT EXPERIENCE?
What better way to inspire budding young artists than by showing them that the path to success can truly be walked, by someone who has already walked it?
The Tysen Knight Art Experience begins with each student receiving a MoxieBox art kit inspired by the artist himself. As the students explore their kits, they watch a short video introducing Tysen, who offers encouragement to pursue their creative dreams. A short while later, Tysen strides into the room, transforming the moment from an ordinary art lesson into a master class led by the architect himself.
With the help of a school facilitator, Tysen collaborates with each student to craft their unique interpretation of his MoxieBox lesson. He hands out stickers, helps shape their ideas, and answers questions about his storied career in art. The room hums with inspiration and joy.
In the full-day experience, Tysen brings one of his original artworks for the students to view using complimentary 3D glasses. As the students finish their keepsake projects, Tysen invites them to share what they created and why. The moment blossoms into a lasting memory as students connect their internal motivation with Tysen's inspiration, realizing their futures brim with just as much possibility as the blank canvases they started with.
In this project, each student will receive a complete MoxieBox art kit where makers learn about positive and negative space while creating an inspirational canvas inspired by artist Tysen Knight. Makers will design a canvas based on the style of Tysen using their own images, words, and feelings. The 10-page Moxie Manual serves as a guide along with Tysen. There will be lots more art to be made with the beautiful liquid chalk marker set, after this project is done! And there is even a wooden easel to display the final masterpiece. All supplies included.
