All around the world masks! Did you know people all around the world use masks in different ways? Well if you didn’t let me give you five examples of how they use their masks. First up is the U.S.A and this you must know if you celebrate Halloween you know that on that holiday we use masks to frighten or amuse others. Next is Dominican Republic which uses masks in parades like different animals or faces that are important in their religion. My favorite is the colorful duck and when he comes by you he whips his whip on the floor really hard for everyone to hear! Third is my favorite and my religion Puerto Rico uses masks to represent their flag. Now next is Africa and it is so crazy and cool on how they use their masks! Africa uses a specific mask called Dagon for a ceremony to represent Africa and Dagon. In Asia they use their masks in a medical way as in to prevent viruses or bacteria.

Mold Masks Have you ever had a art project to make a mold of a face? Well if you haven’t let me tell you it’s a crazy experiment! First you need to make some kind of mold and apply it a mannequin face or a persons face. Don’t apply to eyes or mouth then you let it dry for an hour or two. Then when its done rip it off, but gently! Then your mold mask is done! Who ever knew that masks can be made for art by you?!
