Workshop Descriptions:
Funny Faces
Discover the possibilities of portraiture using recycled materials! Transform the human face into colorful abstract creations with cardboard, and craft framed animal portraits from egg cartons.
Sea & Sky
Create ocean creatures and birds of the sky using items that often get thrown away—turning trash into art while helping keep our planet clean!
Reclaimed Classics
Transform paintings from the Museum’s collection into vibrant found-object mosaics. Sketch in the galleries, then head to the studio to create with paint, cardboard, and an array of reclaimed materials.
Woven from Waste
Learn the basics of paper weaving, using materials like scrap paper, newspaper, and magazines. Then, design your own woven tapestry!
Surreal Snips
Create bold, surreal scenes using recycled magazines. Cut, layer, and reimagine familiar images into unexpected worlds, transforming everyday materials into collage compositions that blur reality and fantasy.
Assemblage
Discover how found objects and recycled materials can be used to make exciting 3D artwork. Experiment and build with shells, cardboard, beads, bottles, and more to create a unique sculpture.
Abstraction
Cut, slot, and stack cardboard shapes to build bold abstract sculptures. You’ll explore form, balance, and space while transforming simple materials into surprising works of art.
