Workshop occurs on consecutive Mondays, October 14–December 16, noon–1:30 p.m. (no class on November 25)
Explore your creativity, learn a new skill, and create art with an iPad in this free digital art-making workshop at the Frist Art Museum, supported by E. A. Michelson Philanthropy.
Learn digital art-making skills and new forms of creative expression while becoming more comfortable with technology, developing community and personal connections, and engaging more closely with Frist exhibitions and programs.
The workshop consists of eight 90-minute art-making sessions. These sessions are led by a teaching artist and include admission to the Frist. The lessons will relate to the exhibitions Journey through Japan: Myths to Manga and María Magdalena Campos-Pons: Behold and explore themes of story and identity.
In each session, you will learn digital art-making skills using the ProCreate app on an iPad as well as traditional art-making materials. At the end of the workshop, there will be a concluding event at the Frist Art Museum.
This workshop is free and open to the public. All participants will receive a year-long dual membership to the Frist Art Museum.
If you have any questions, contact Shahnaz Lighari at Slighari@Fristartmuseum.org.
