Saturday, March 17th Romero Britto
Imaginations will soar as we explore this Brazilian, Neo-Pop artist, painter and sculptor. Artists will be inspired to create their own piece by his modern, bright and colorful work!
Saturday, April 14th Jasper Johns
Jasper Johns came onto the art scene in the 1950’s.
His paintings of everyday objects (flags, targets) show us things that we have seen hundreds of times and often just ignore. We will find new mean in the objects he shows us.
Artists will create their own take on a Johns’ classic.
Two sessions on each Saturday will be offered. 10-11:30 pm and 12:30-2 pm. Please specify which session you would prefer when registering.
