THIS WORKSHOP IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL ART TEACHERS

Zines are a cheap and creative way to share information. I just started to teach Zines during the pandemic, but they are now a staple in my studio curriculum. Minimal materials are required, many elements and principals are covered, and students are constantly engaged! I like to use Zines to introduce myself, my class procedures and to learn about my students’ interests!

Learn some gelli-printing monotype strategies to use in a classroom setting, and how to save money by making your own gelatin plates at home. Gelatin prints can make great backgrounds for other types of printmaking (i.e., block printing), or can stand alone as beautiful, one-of-a-kind works of art.

Create a self-portrait within google suite program google drawing. Its limited features do not prevent you from creating a portrait with highlights/shadows and all proper facial features! Great for any age group 5th and up. Very watered down Photoshop features allow this program to be very user friendly.

This workshop will demonstrate how any marker can be used to write the flowing casual lettering style known as brush script. Exemplars of different alphabets and a variety of project possibilities including using this script for sketchbook and journaling will be presented. 

This class is currently closed, but please feel free to register.  You will be put on a waitlist.  Should an opening arise you will be notified if an opening becomes available.

In this class, you will learn the basics of wheel throwing. Week 1 you will learn how to center your clay, pull walls, and shape your vessel.

This class also has a bonus project where you will learn how to make my student's all-time favorite project, pinch pot pumpkins. *This workshop is limited to 10 people – so register early!

Welcome in 2022 with an in-person visit to the Heckscher Museum! Enjoy a self-guided tour of our brand-new exhibitions, Moonstruck and African- American artist Richard Mayhew: Reinvented Landscapes.

Let me share my recent, evolutionary invention of creating an Intaglio or Relief plate for printmaking using a black and white digital image converted into an SVG, a Cricut and mat board. The resulting plate you can use with or without an etching press. Students will be shown how to create an SVG image and how to upload it onto the online Cricut software to create the plate. Loads of fun, safe and a great time saver.

This project can be a new and fun vehicle for you to get to know your students and the opportunity for students to get to know each other. Each student can tailor their project using their favorite art media while incorporating the Elements of Art & Principles of Design. Lettering, collage, and shading are topics that are touched upon. The "sharing" part of the project can be covered using public speaking, writing, images and/or technology such as the Flip Grid program. All that is needed is a lunch size paper bag, some basic art supplies, and your personality.

Let's hit a "grand slam" by learning the origami bases that lead to an amazing amount of origami models.  Teachers will supply resources for visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and reading learners.  Participants will have the opportunity to individualize the basic origami models into their own unique creations using collage and drawing materials. Origami can teach the Elements of Art and the Principles of Design in a fun, fresh way.  With origami as part of your "lineup", you will be sure to have ART champions at every level!
