The Pablo Picasso Poster ‘Every Child is an Artist’ Art Project is an inspiring bulletin board craft and educational art and math project designed for grades 3-12. This collaborative activity allows students to explore the iconic Pablo Picasso quote while learning the grid drawing method. Each student is assigned a grid/tile to enlarge their respective squares to a 1:6 scale, color them, and assemble the pieces to form a vibrant classroom mural. The finished poster measures 108cm x 108cm, creating a striking visual centerpiece that celebrates creativity and teamwork. Teachers can decide on the color palette, follow a provided sample, or empower students to make their own artistic choices, fostering individuality and collaboration.

This Picasso art activity for students is a versatile tool for teaching both artistic techniques and mathematical concepts like scale and proportion. It’s perfect for integrating famous artist crafts for kids into the curriculum and serves as an excellent bulletin board craft, transforming classroom walls into an art gallery. By engaging in this hands-on activity, students enhance their problem-solving, communication, and fine motor skills while gaining an appreciation for Picasso’s contributions to art. This project encourages teamwork, sparks creativity, and leaves a lasting impression on students as they celebrate the enduring truth of Picasso’s words: “Every child is an artist.”

This resource includes a complete grid overlay on the reference image, along with five different grid variations to choose from on the enlarged squares, ranging from dark to light lines. These grids align perfectly with the enlarged squares, allowing students to transfer the image easily without needing additional measurements.
