ONSITE: Family Studio: Fabric Collages Inspired By Faith Ringgold
Come and make art side by side as a family. Families will explore a new medium each week and create a beautiful project together. Come learn about the incredible artist and children's book author Faith Ringgold! We will look at her beautiful story quilts for inspiration and then make our own story quilts using paper, fabric, glue, and a variety of drawing supplies.
