The Reece Museum invites you to join us Friday, Sept. 12, from 2 to 4 p.m. for a mobile-making workshop with Amanda Renfrow of Renfrow Originals. Traditionally, Renfrow’s mobiles are made with glass, but for this workshop participants will be supplied with alternative user-friendly materials. No experience is needed for this fun exploration of shape, color, and design. This is a place and space for creative play and community connection. All materials and tools necessary will be supplied by the Reece Museum.
Renfrow is a stained-glass artist hailing from Appalachia with more than six years of intensive study in the art form. She has worked alongside Steve Cook and held an apprenticeship for the restoration of the historic St. Marks Presbyterian Church in Rogersville, Tennessee. Since then, Renfrow has collaborated on numerous ambitious projects, constructing grand windows that highlight her exceptional craftsmanship. Through those dramatic partnerships she has become known for her conventional and unconventional art using stained glass as well as incorporating other traditional techniques. This workshop is inspired by Renfrow’s permanent installation of a stained-glass transom window at the Reece Museum’s front entry titled, Geometric Genesis.
Spots are limited, so be sure to RSVP via our email: [email protected]. A suggested donation of $10 is encouraged to support community programs like these.
