Arts & Ancestry Circle
About this Event
Take time to create in the company of others. Bring your personal handwork/art/craft projects to work on over this 1.5-hour casual get-together with other creatives and aspiring creatives. Work with your hands while enjoying conversation, tea, and a nibble, with time to reflect using creative prompts based on the arts-and-ancestry theme.
With each session, a visiting artist/craftsperson, Circle member, or museum staff, will briefly introduce a medium, a technique, or a process that might inspire your personal work. Then, dive in to experiment with what you’ve just learned using the provided supplies, or get to work on your personal projects. The women of “The Big House” have been knitting, crocheting, stitching, mending, beading, drawing, painting, scrapbooking, journaling, writing in-community for 160 years. Let’s continue their traditions and the handwork heritage of our own pasts in one another's company.
Put Arts & Ancestry on your calendar and make the space to create! Arts & Ancestry is FREE, including supplies for experimenting with new mediums and techniques. Location: our circle will meet in the museum, on the veranda, or in the carriage barn, depending on the space required to accommodate participants, the session’s materials/techniques, and the weather. RSVPs required for each gathering. DATES: July 2, July 16, August 6, August 20, September 10, September 24, October 8, October 22.
