The Impressionist: Art Game
This week’s featured activity kit, The Impressionist: Art Game (CR 759.05 i34) is a great art trivia game. The game is centered on impressionist painters such as Monet and Renoir, with an accompanying book that details 32 different painting from this period. Players have two game options based on classic games of strategy and memory. Go Fish for Art requires players to acquire a set of paintings by the same artist. This game is played in the same manner as the traditional card game Go Fish. The cards can also be used for the game Masterpiece Memory, which is played in the same fashion as the game Concentration. This game and book will leave players with many new art facts such as: “Edgar Degas is most famous for his many works of ballet paintings”, or “Claude Monet would create beautiful paintings to take his mind off his family’s financial problems”.
The kit is currently displayed on the small table near the Service Desk on the ground floor of the library. Check it out today!
