CONTESTS
FOR THE CURIOUS
Sculpture
Contest
|
Whether you live in the Northern Hemisphere
or the Southern Hemisphere - no matter what the weather is
like, no matter what your surroundings may be, you should
all be able to take part in this contest!
What you need to do is create a sculpture of
a cryptozoological being along with a story sheet that tells
all about him (or her...or it!) Be as imaginative as you like
but try to tie it in with a real claim that has been made
and provide a skeptical perspective to your story.
|
Here are some ideas
for what you can make your sculpture out of:
|
SNOW!
If it's winter where you are and there's
good packing snow outside, put on your boots and mittens
and get out there and design a creature out of snow
|
SAND!
Going to the beach this summer? Remember
to take your sand bucket and shovel and think up a creature
that can be made out of sand!
|
ICE!
This is a tough one, but with a few kitchen
utensils you might be able to think up an interesting creature
that can be made into an ice sculpture.
|
HAY!
Apparently this is quite popular in the
prairies - make a creature out of hay!
|
MUD!
Parents might not appreciate this but
what else are we supposed to do on rainy days? And who
hasn't heard of the great MudMan that used to run through
the streets, scaring all of the frogs and getting the
carpets dirty!?
|
Of course, you can think of your own
sculpting supplies too! That blah oatmeal we have to eat for
breakfast, for instance, or the mashed potatoes that are left
over from supper - be creative!
