YAY...Clay!

This weekend we had our first open clay workshop! Join us for the Family That Paints Together this Saturday from 10am to 11am!
This Saturday join us for the second part of our fibers series on felting. Felt is the oldest textile known to man, and has been created for centuries all over the world for use as clothing, shelter, rugs, and art. Participate in this non-woven fabric making legacy. Lizzy has developed a four part workshop series that will explore the traditions and process of felting from dying wool rovings to using felt to draw, build and as a way to create both decorative and functional objects. This class will explore hand dyeing of wool. Students interested in gaining a deeper understanding of this versatile art material should consider registering for the full four part series. Go here to register!

This Saturday - Clay and Cyanotypes...

In part one of this two session class students use their hands to build artwork out of earth clay. The clay will be fired to prepare for part two of the class where students learn to glaze. This Saturday from 10-11:30.
This class will introduce students to the history of the Cyanotype process. Students will learn how to mix chemicals to make sensitizing solutions and application techniques for coating various papers, fabric. Photograms may be created with botanical specimens, feathers, lace, stencils, and other objects (no film, camera, or negatives needed for photograms). Most of the class will take place outside, as sunlight will be used to expose the Cyanotypes.

This workshop is adaptable for participants of all ages and levels of experience.
