Kite Making Class at RTPI

Join us Saturday, October 10, from 1-2 pm for a kite-making workshop! Participants will decorate their own wind sled kite, a simple frame-free kite that uses the wind to inflate its curved shape and fly easily. A wide array of art supplies will be on hand for participants to decorate their kits: markers, crayons, paints, etc.! Instructor Mike Jabot, SUNY Distinguished Professor in Education, will be on hand to explain how scientists use kites to study the lower atmosphere, and how animals such as birds use it, too! After kite decorating, participants can take their new creations outside and get them flying.
