OPEN STUDIO MARCH 26, 2023
2-3:30 PM
The Kennedy Museum of Art March Family Open Studio will explore the process of papermaking. We will examine Sam Gilliam’s Barneville Shards and how he used handmade paper to create this mixed media piece. Barneville Shards is on display in the Centering Black Artists exhibition at the Museum. Participants will learn how paper pulp is made, how to pull sheets of paper, and different ways they can use handmade paper. Those attending will get to leave with a sheet of handmade paper created using the same techniques they will have learned during the studio.
Instructors: Hannah Moulen, MFA Graduate Student/Printmaking; Tristen Luken, BFA Student, Printmaking; and Emily Van Meter, HTC Studio/Art History major.
