Trash to Treasure: Creating “Trash Fairies”
June 28 @ 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm
$80
Students will explore the process of using creative association and found materials to make small assemblages called “trash fairies.” Depending on the scale of the works, these assemblages can be framed as art, used as jewelry, refrigerator magnets, or exist on their own as small sculptures. Participants are encouraged to bring their own “found materials” for incorporation into the work. Each student will leave the workshop with a completed project to take home. This class is designed for all skill levels. If you can make a choice and use glue, you can create these assemblages. No expertise in visual art is necessary for a successful result.
Age 17 and Up
Cost: $75, plus a $5 materials fee
