About the event
We throw away cardboard after we order a package, eat out, and move from one place to another. We discard it’s use after its purpose. But how about we make something new and creative with it!
In this workshop, we will learn to explore cardboard and other accessible art media. We will make portraits…entirely out of cardboard! So let’s rip into the workshop and explore the texture of cardboard from its ripples and frizzles.
INSTRUCTOR: Andres Dominguez Fernandez, an artist whose primary medium is ceramics, created this workshop as a way to help others explore their creativity, tell their stories, and find their voice through art. See his work on Instagram @andres.psd.
Free and open to all, but please register so we can plan accordingly. Ages 14+. Max 15 students.
