Brian Yanish teaches children to turn trash to treasure
Our special day is coming soon!
We are so excited to announce Author/Illustrator Brian Yanish is coming to visit South Hill Elementary School. Please see the bio below from his website.
Brian began his training drawing monsters in kindergarten in Western New York. He has worked for Jim Henson Productions in Los Angeles, trained as a special effects moldmaker, written and performed comedy, designed educational software, and sold his own line of T-shirts. He currently lives in New York City where he runs the ScrapKins Recycled Arts program, designs for apparel, children's books, apps and continues his training drawing monsters.
