Museum of Craft & Folk Art
The Museum of Craft and Folk Art provides innovative exhibitions and educational programs that are designed to connect with and inspire diverse communities...demonstrating how folk art, contemporary craft, and fine art are all part of the same continuum.
Join us on Thursday, March 3rd from 6-8pm for a Craft Bar featuring workshops by two local artists. Learn how to turn ordinary felt into a beautiful piece of wearable art with papercut artist, Jeeyon Shim. Jeeyon will be teaching a workshop on crafting a gorgeous felt bracelet using German papercutting techniques. Comics artist, Susie Cagle, will be teaching a primer in mini-comic book making. From script to bound book: write, draw, and assemble your own finished pocket-sized comic in about an hour.
Don’t forget to take inspiration from the gallery and Museum gift-shop while you explore the creative process. Materials kindly provided by Simplicity. Drinks provided by Trumer Pils.
$5 admission includes materials, tips and tricks.
