History is kicking off February School Vacation Week with original artwork from
the Cape Cod Lighthouse Charter School’s 6<sup>th</sup> grade art classes. The
students are experimenting with their own version of a Mexican traditional
substance called Amate, made from the pulp of the Fig and Mulberry trees. Using
their own substance of brown craft paper and India ink, they considered the
animals, plant life and environment of Cape Cod to create their original
tempera paintings inspired by the Amate tradition. These paintings reflect
their efforts to select birds, fish, reptiles and plants interpreting them by
using bold colors in creative ways. Free with Museum Admission.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
