How to Make a Diorama

Watch more Craft Ideas for Kids videos:
A fun craft project for the kids or for a book report, history class, or science project for school, a diorama brings three-dimensional reality to any idea.
Step 1: Choose theme
Decide on a theme, such as the ocean, the rainforest, the solar system, or a favorite scene from a book. Make a list of all the elements to include and any important action in the scene you want to depict.
Step 2: Decorate box
Turn a cardboard box, like a shoebox, on its side. Paint the colors of the background landscape, including the sea, sky, and ground, or glue construction paper to the inside. Decorate the top and both sides. Let it dry thoroughly.
Step 3: Add figurines
Gather your miniature figurines, or cut out figures from construction paper or cardboard painted to look like the people, objects, or animals in your scene.
Tip
Keep proper scale in mind for realism. The miniature standard is 1 foot to 1 inch.
Step 4: Glue figurines
Work from the back of the box to the front, placing your figures inside. Glue them in place when you find the layout you like.
Step 5: Add details
Consider hanging objects from the top of the box, such as birds, or fish in an ocean scene, using dental floss or sewing thread and clear tape. Those extra details will bring life to your display and wow your classmates!

The Struggle for Justice: The 1619 Project and the Changing Narrative on Mass Incarceration
An evening focused on the struggle for justice, from the first arrival of enslaved people sold to colonists in 1619 to the mass incarceration of Black and Brown people.
The evening program begins with a keynote address by award-winning New York Times journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, lead writer on the New York Times Magazine 1619 Project issue. An expert panel of criminal justice advocates, journalists, and educators will then discuss the changing narrative on mass incarceration. Following the panel discussion, Hannah-Jones will join in a Q&A with panelists.

Norris Henderson, Founder and Executive Director, Voice of the Experienced
Sarah Ross, Assistant Professor, SAIC and Cofounder of the Prison + Neighborhood Arts Project
Brian L. Frank, Photojournalist and Pulitzer Center Grantee

Amherst Alums Addressing African Growth
Ron Hoge ’67 and Dianne Hoge will moderate. Boris Bulayev ’07 and Bill Ryerson ’67 will describe their organizations and the work those organizations are doing to encourage and support educational and economic growth in Africa. Africa is projected to be home to 40 percent of the world’s population by 2100, with growth from 1.2 billion to nearly 4 billion people. This session will explore how two nonprofit organizations founded by Amherst alums—Educate! and Population Media Center—are successfully addressing key issues surrounding this projection. Educate! works to transform secondary education in East Africa by giving students the skills to start businesses, get jobs and improve their livelihoods. They have seen a doubling of student income through their work; will impact 26,000 students intensively this year across 20 percent of Uganda’s high schools and 15 percent of Rwanda’s; have had core model components adopted nationally in both countries; were recently the subject of an Al Jazeera documentary; and have been highlighted by Bill Gates, Forbes’ 30 Under 30 and The Brookings Institution as a successful global scaling education initiative. Population Media Center takes a different tack by directly addressing the African population growth challenge itself. PMC creates long-running prime-time serialized dramas on radio and TV in which key characters evolve into positive role models for such goals as ending child marriage, daughter education, child spacing and use of effective methods of family planning. Their programs have been shown to be effective at attracting huge audiences and in changing national norms on the issues addressed. Presented by the Classes of 1967 and 2007.
