    What is the difference between a maze and a labyrinth? Legend tells us that Daedalus created an elaborate labyrinth under the palace at Knossos for King Minos on the island of Crete to hold the Minotaur, a creature that was half man and half bull. The Labyrinth was so cunningly made that Daedalus himself could barely escape it after he built it. Perhaps the most celebrated labyrinth is at Notre Dame Cathedral in Chartres, France. We will discuss the definition, legend, and history of the labyrinth while creating colorful labyrinths using markers, pencils and pastels. For ages six years and up.  Instructor: Allison Zito Artist and Teacher, Harcum College
