Diane Rowen Garmire, A Two-Day Paper Mache Class - Class is full
Saturday, October 3rd 12:30-2:30
AND Saturday, October 10th 12:30-2:30
$60.00
This paper-mache workshop is designed to teach basic techniques, such as the strip and pulp methods, as well as mixed-media embellishments, to guide beginners through building, layering, and finishing vessels using various materials. This workshop is ideal for those seeking a creative, three -dimensional, hands-on, and relaxing art experience. All materials will be supplied. Paper-mache, while somewhat messy, is easily washed out of clothing; however, it is recommended to wear an apron during this class. Students will design vessels using a slump technique and molds. The objective is to encourage creativity while developing skills in both strip and pulp application techniques.
Jenni Barry, Kimekomi Class
Saturday, October 17th
12-4 pm , $55.00
Kimekomi classes cover the basics of this unique art, including basic design, fabric selection, techniques for cutting the grooves, and cutting and tucking the fabric
to fit smoothly. Materials and tools are provided, including beginner-friendly patterns, 8in square foam board, scissors, knives, and fabric.
I encourage students to bring their favorite fabric or,
if they prefer, their favorite sewing scissors, but it is not necessary. Students should bring snacks and water.
New Kimekomi artists enjoy the meditative nature of
this art and the friendly conversations that arise in class.
Copper Fold Forming Class
with Sarah Peterson
Turn flat copper into stunning, 3D wearable art!
Saturday, Nov 14th, 12:00 PM – 4:00 PM - $50
Join Sarah for a hands-on class and learn how to heat, fold, and texture metal using a torch. You'll walk away with two beautiful, custom pieces: a striking cuff bracelet and a pendant!
She will guide you through the process of using a torch to anneal the copper, making it pliable enough to bend. You will learn how to fold, hammer and texture the metal to achieve rich surfaces.
Please bring your own hammer, pliers, shears, punches, and any favorite metal forming tools.
All copper and workshop materials are included!
Space is limited to six to ensure plenty of individual torch time.
