Lessons are also offered Oil Drum Art
Make a statement about our environment.
Oil drums are used as symbols of the environmental crisis created by fossil fuels. Students create a statement about our planets ecology, as well as, create designs and paint oil drums – using themes that will help keep our environment clean, healthy and thriving. Oil drums can be used as containers to store items in the classroom, planters or receptacles for recycling. Children create their designs which are transferred on to the oil drum by the artist. The children then paint the banners in a workshop under the direction of the artist. Students can also create a written statement that explains the art they have done on the oil drum and what they would like to tell the public about their art. Oil drums come in different sizes – 10 gallon drums are recommended for schools. The oil drums used for painting are clean and new and come in sizes of 55 gallon, 40 gallon and 10 gallon drums.
