Instructor: Mary Zeran
Place: Cedar Rapids Museum of Art
Tickets: $35 per person
Join artist Mary Zeran and the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art for a special art workshop for beginners. Inspired by our current exhibition I AM: Prints by Elizabeth Catlett, you will create two works of art from one project! First, using found materials, create a wood sculpture with simple power and hand tools. Then, use the same sculpture to create wood block prints. Frame your wood sculpture right next to the print you've created from it!
Registration required by Friday, April 19. Contact Mary Duncan at 319.366.7503 ext. 207 to register today.
