Drinking Straw Towers

These drinking straw structures were built during an impromptu break time art club. This sort of thing happens sometimes at Red Balloon  because our learner centre is so small - having a low number of students and staff allows us a great degree of spontaneity. These towers are the result of creativity spilling out of the art room and into the community area during a break period.  The photographs don't quite capture the scale of the pieces - the biggest is about three feet tall!
