Drawn Together: An Inter-Generational Art Class

Drawn Together: An Inter-Generational Art Class

Community Room
Tuesday, Feb 4, 2025, 4:00pm to 5:00pm

Elementary school students and senior citizens are invited to create side-by-side in this afternoon art class taught by artist Christina T. For the months of February and March, we'll explore all of the possibilities of making with papers of all kinds. Will you fold it carefully or tear it with abandon? Will you use glue or find other ways to attach pieces together? Will you create something 2D or 3D? Try out new techniques each week and be inspired by each other! No registration required.

Facing the Future: Art as a Tool for Protection with TetraPAKMAN

So, we’re gathering to make art as the world is on fire? Yes
Explore firsthand what it feels like to collaborate with an artist who has committed his decades-long art practice to centering our climate crisis and fostering community action and creation as a way to protect our future.

Join artist-in-residence, TetraPAKMAN and a community of like-minded individuals who believe art-making is not just a creative process, but an act of care and protection in these unstable times. Through tactile, hands-on engagement, you will get to add to meaningful projects that reflect a long-term vision for collective well-being. Participants will be invited to paint carbon emissions statistics on bedsheets and build onto layers of 4ft tall sculptures made of familiar household items. 

While we believe this work is most impactful in spaces with people of all ages, these workshops in particular will be designed for adults as well as youth ages (8+) who attend with an adult. Feel free to register for one session — or all three!
