About the badges

Art

This merit badge concentrates on two-dimensional art, specifically drawing and painting in various media, including an introduction to design applications in the fields of graphic arts and industrial design, history and design principles, and how these fields relate to fine art.

Woodcarving

As with any art, wood carving involves learning the basics of design, along with choosing materials, tools, and techniques, and wood-carving safety. The requirements introduce Scouts to an enjoyable hobby that can become a lifetime activity.

Signing up

Your unit leader registers each Scout for classes in MyCouncil when your week's registration opens in late April. Classes fill up, so list a second and third choice for each session.
