-Adult- | This program has been canceled
Discover how you can use simple hand sewing techniques as a form of drawing to make a small-scale fabric collage. You’ll expand your understanding of image generation by composing with fabric and drawing with thread – a unique alternative strategy that can result in transferable ideas for any art medium. Be sure to bring in a variety of surplus fabric pieces (translucent, printed, opaque) to supplement what is provided so you can personalize your collage with fabrics that hold meaning for you.
