SUMMARY:Art of Duck and Moose AND Squiggle Party
DESCRIPTION:TWO EXHIBITS IN ONE SPACE!\n\n\n \n\nArt of Duck & Moose: From 
 Sketch to Book\n\nArt of Duck & Moose: From Sketch to Book is a 
 behind-the-scenes look at author/illustrator Kirk Reedstrom’s early 
 graphic novel series Duck and Moose. This exhibition showcases the time\, 
 care\, and dedication Reedstrom invested in creating his four-book series. 
 Visitors embark on a visual journey starting from initial sketches and 
 early drafts of the cover\, title\, and storyboard\, to the final product. 
 Despite their differences\, Duck and Moose demonstrate the power of 
 friendship\, compromise\, and imagination\, inspiring young readers to be 
 kind and accept others’ differences. Witness the transformation of this 
 unlikely pair as they take on thrilling adventures and become lifelong 
 friends. \n\n \n\nSquiggle Party: A Doodle Experience\n\nSquiggle Party! is 
 an interactive exhibit featuring story and writing prompts based on D. W. 
 Winnicott’s Squiggle Gameexercise and cartoonist Lynda Barry’s creative 
 process. Visitors will see seven prompt pieces\, which include a squiggle\, 
 a character based on the squiggle\, and the finished illustration. A 
 “squiggle wall” invites participants of all ages to create their own 
 doodles and leave their imaginative mark in the exhibit. \n\n \n\n
