September 16: Paper Plants
Create a paper plant sculpture using wire, pipe cleaners and more. Plus, we’ll tour our current exhibitions to gain some inspiration for our projects. What type of plant will you make?
October 21: Felt and Fabric Maps
Join us to create a colourful map inspired by Heather Shillinglaw’s exhibition mâmitonêyihcikan kotâwîw – my mind digs in the soil like a turtle. Our maps can show our favourite places we call home, and will use materials like fabric, pieces of felt, fabric crayons and more!
November 18: Self-Portrait Collage
Create a self-portrait from scrapbook paper, magazine clippings, and more inspired by the works of Jacqueline Huskisson featured in her staircase exhibition Liminal Spaces. Our instructor will guide participants to look at the unique shapes that create our faces and demonstrate some fun collage techniques too!
December 16: Light & Dark
Come view our current exhibitions and explore a fun printmaking project with us! Our instructor will teach participants to make a dramatic and bold Styrofoam print on dark paper using white ink. Please dress for a mess!
