Workshops Galore!

Silk Painting workshop at the Biggs=Creative fun for all!

It may be the dog days of summer, but the Biggs Museum is heating things up with summer programming. Encoring the filled-up Silk Painting workshop held two Saturdays ago, the Biggs Museum will be hosting an additional Silk Painting workshop next Wednesday, July 31st from 12-7p.m. Elizabeth Collard will lead this mini-workshop to learn the basic skills of silk paintings. Participants will create a beautiful silk scarf and one small wall hanging using vibrant silk dyes, and special techniques. Judging by the photos from last Saturday, this workshop looked like a blast! There are only 12 spaces remaining, so reserve your space today!

If writing is your idead of expressing creativity, stop in this Saturday, July 26 at noon for a writing workshop led by 2008 Award Winners fellow, Delia Scarpitti. Delia will show participants how to examine their minds (which she considers the roadmap for the p for the writing journey) through dynamic writing exercises.

Not that it may even be possible on day four of this heat wave, but if your children have grown tired of the pool, sign them up for a fun-filled and air conditioned week at the Biggs Summer Art Series day-camp! Session three begins next week for children ages 5-15. Each child will take part in arts and crafts and create one to be displayed in the museum and one to take home.
