Abrakadoodle launches ArtDoodles App available on iTunes

Imaginations rule at Abrakadoodle, which is why we are so excited to announce ArtDoodles, the new art app that let’s you take creative fun wherever you go! The good news: it’s only 99-cents!

ArtDoodles features three games in one: Matisse Cutouts; Graffiti Artist and Word Art.

Matisse Cutouts enables you to fashion cutout shapes and colors into an art creation, while Graffiti Artist gives you control of images, words and objects that appear to move. Word Art lets you mix up, rotate and resize words to create a collage of arty words with a background of your choosing that makes the word shapes pop!

“Art is for everyone,” comments Mary Rogers, CEO of Abrakadoodle. “I am thrilled about our new ArtDoodles App because it enables kids and adults to experience and explore art on the go!”

Abrakadoodle-Austin, Texas will be launching a three-year summer camp program with the Umlauf Sculpture Garden. This summer will feature Abrakadoodle’s Garden Art Safari camp, which will be customized to include mini tours of the sculptures and museum grounds to inspire the campers. According to Geraldine Smythe, Director of Abrakadoodle-Austin, “Charles Umlauf did lots of bronzes that kids will find fun like wild boars and angels. It’s going to be a great time!”

Abrakadoodle will present a two-part sculpture camp, as well as six other themes that will also be run in other sites around the city throughout 2011. Smythe comments, “It is the beginning of what I think will prove to be a very hands-on, memorable experience for thousands of kids in the area who want to have a great time and learn something fun during their summer break at an iconic, centrally located garden-type museum!”
