Summer Workshop Program 2023

Zehra Khan Multi-Media Experimental Art June 18 to June 24, 2023 Tuition: $800.00 Workshop: 9am - 12pm Discipline: Multimedia OPEN TO ALL On-site Housing NOT Available - Off-site Housing Options

This workshop challenges your art making habits through experiments and play with multi-media, process, and output. We will use unconventional materials (found objects, organic matter, land/environment), try varied processes (drawing, sculpture, text, performance, photography, video, collaboration), and discuss the different experiences of creative output (online, in-real-life, gallery, museum, public, permanent/impermanent.) Through experiments with the unfamiliar we will focus on problem-solving, spontaneity, and creative expansion.
