Summer Workshops: Bead + Fabric Session 2 | August 8-12, 9am-12pm
August 8, 2016 - August 12, 2016
$150Bead & Fabric Workshop
The Bead & Fabric Workshop at CHAP includes creative art experiences revolving around textiles, needlework, and beadwork. In this workshop children will have the chance to learn the fundamentals of sewing, both by hand and by sewing machine. Children can create tote bags, custom design textiles, stuffed animals, beaded jewelry, and hand-embroidered keepsakes.
Children will experience a spectrum of projects and mediums in the fun and
whimsical environment that is CHAP. The daily three-hour art sessions are
designed so children have the time to work whole-heartedly on their projects
without experiencing creative fatigue–time for snack and outdoor play is incorporated daily!
The cost of a workshop covers art supplies and hours of fun, while also
supporting CHAP in delivering innovative healing arts programs to critically ill, chronically ill and disabled children and their loved ones.
Guest Artists for Bead + Fabric Session 2, August 8-12 9am-12pm
White on Black Printmaking and Jewelry with Jo Brody
Jo is a jewelry designer, printmaker, mom of two sons, cancer surviver and dancer, among many other things.
Her love of texture, color, drawing and art materials of all kinds helps to define her joyful art-making style.
The fact that she is an Aquarian and a real “people person” makes her an enthusiastic teacher of both kids and adults. Sometimes she gets carried away and forgets to clean up her mess before she starts making a new one. That’s what makes her an artist!
