Events for November 16, 2024 - November 16, 2024

Learn to let loose when creating art! For this class students can bring in any object or image that inspires them as reference. Instead of drawing/painting it realistically, they will look at the colors, shapes and textures of the object to create mixed media pieces with no pressure of perfection. This class is for adults; registration is $35.

M|otherworlds is a group exhibition featuring regional Arizona artists who are also mothers. The work in the show centers on the transitional space of new parenthood during the first years of postpartum, also referred to as matrescence, or mother-becoming. The notion of transformation is echoed in the title of the exhibition. M|otherworlds references a surreal and unfamiliar experience. M|otherworlds is also about creation, the creation of a new reality, the creation of a new self. Themes of identity, caretaking and imaginative world building weave throughout the works in this exhibition.
