Plaza Lights | Holiday Drawing Project

$10.00

The Plaza Lighting Ceremony has a long history of brightening the winter skyline. Explore these traditions with your students through this low-prep, minimal supply and engaging drawing project.

In this mixed media lesson, you’ll find everything you need to draw the Plaza Lights, including photo references of buildings and towers on the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City, MO, brief history of the area, detailed photo instructions, project extensions and alternatives, and helpful tips along the way. I’ve done this project with 4th graders but it could work great with grades above and below to fit your needs.
