Materials for this program

By Carter Umhau

Get back into the flow of your creative practice, combat perfectionism, and learn how to pay attention to the materials in front of you rather than the critic in your head with this one-day workshop. You dig into how to engage in art-making through the principles of improvisation and exploration. No specialized experience is required for this class; it is suited for anyone from beginning to experienced artists. Some materials are provided.
