Mail Art Exchange (Ages 8+) (Online)
Instructor: Kim Waterman
Day & Time: Friday, 2–3pm
Dates: July 17, 2020
Meetings: 1
Young Artist Ages: 8+
Location: Online via Zoom
Join the Art Exchange! Make a work of mixed media art and pop it in an envelope. Then mail your art to your assigned art pen pal, and receive some art in return! Make extra works of art to mail to friends and family! In our virtual workshop, we will meet the other artists and talk about our ideas for our mailable art. We will discuss the use of text in our art, explore collage and painting possibilities, and watch a mixed media demonstration. Grow your community, make some new friends (and maybe a penpal or two), and join the art exchange!
Materials
Students will need drawing or painting materials to create their mailable work of art, an envelope, and a stamp (or ability to mail out their creations at the post office).
Please consider supporting IS183 Art School by making an additional donation.
Online Classes at IS183
Though IS183 Art School has temporarily closed its doors due to the evolving COVID-19 situation, we are committed to our mission to provide hands-on art-making opportunities, keeping creativity alive during this challenging time. Our new Online Art series offers digital opportunities to work with talented IS183 Faculty Artists, bringing the studio experience to you!
Tuition
To make these classes as accessible as possible to everyone, we are offering each class with the option to select how much you want to pay. No matter which option you choose, you'll join the same class as everyone else. We trust that you will support IS183 with whatever you can afford, and encourage you to support the school with an additional donation during this challenging time, if possible.
How It Works
Register for a class (or series) on our website, and we will email you a Zoom meeting link along with instructions. Simply use the link to join the online class at the designated time! Download the Zoom app on your smartphone or tablet, or use your laptop/desktop web browser. The web browser client will download automatically when you join your first Zoom meeting. (Have a look at this Zoom overview.)
You will join a live, interactive lesson presented in real-time by an IS183 Faculty Artist. Small class sizes will allow you to engage personally with the instructor and other students, just like in the studio! Faculty lessons will primarily be demonstration-based, but may have segments in which students are challenged to work on independent assignments. Each class and faculty approach will be unique!
Thank you for continuing to make art and support IS183 Art School! We look forward to seeing you in the (virtual) studios!
