In this session of after-school art at the Brothership Building, we will explore the incredible public art pieces and street art of the Berkshires and beyond. When asked where you can go to see art, many people automatically think of a museum or gallery, but the truth is that ART is EVERYWHERE! Across the Berkshires, art can be seen in our everyday lives from painted electrical boxes, to large scale murals on the sides of buildings, to sculptures and statues in public spaces, and so much more. Dive into the world of local artists like Stephanie VanBramer and Michael McKay and create your own "Superhero Doors" and "Graffitti Quotes" on this adventure into street art!
This program is FREE and open to middle and high school students from Pittsfield Public Schools (Herberg, Reid, Taconic and PHS).
