Holiday Button-Making Workshop with Lyla Rye
Sat, Dec 14, 2013 starting at 1:00 PM
In this family-friendly workshop, learn principles of collage using found imagery culled from newspapers, advertisements and magazines. Through play and experimentation, we will explore how collisions of imagery or unexpected image/text combinations create new associations and ideas. The finished small collages will then be made into unique art buttons, perfect for stocking stuffers and holiday gift-giving!
Workshop is free; suggested donation of $5 per set of 3 buttons to cover material costs and benefit project space programming. Kids welcome accompanied by caregivers; recommended age range is 5 and up.
