Event Description
Making Art History is a 2-part micro-art and history class. The first class starts with a brief lesson on art movements or artists in history (as well as contemporary artists). The second class will occur the following week, and we’ll focus on completing our projects while enjoying a lively discussion about the themes and techniques we’ve been exploring!
This month’s Making Art History presents Artist and Activist – Faith Ringgold
Faith Ringgold was a multi-media artist and activist for equality. A significant cultural figure, Ringgold produced a stunning body of work as a painter and sculptor in the earlier years of her art career. She is perhaps as equally known for her narrative quilts. These complex pieces tell stories of community and of place and time. We’ll be exploring the incredible work of this remarkable woman and creating tempera tribute portraits in her style!
Classes run June 3 & 10 from 6-8 pm. Registration covers both classes. All supplies included.
