Stamp making workshop!

We’ll be making cool stamps out of soft foam, the stamps are easy to make, fun and can be used again and again.  Come take a break and make a stamp, it can be as small or as large as you like.  They’re great for cards, simple block prints, books, and letters.

PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT TRAINED WILL NoT BE ABLE TO SEW ON THE MACHINE !

You MUST to come to one of Art Club’s quick Sewing Machine Demonstration sessions in order to have access to our new machine. Everyone needs to be trained in using the machine because all sewing machines are complicated and will break VERY easily if we are not careful.

These two events will be held during Community Art Night, but anyone is welcome to come and Community Art Night is still happening.

Teach a Workshop!

Sunday, March 1st, 2009

We want workshops in any possible topic. You really don’t need to be an expert, anything is great.

Please, if you are a member of the Bryn Mawr Community, think about teaching a workshop with Art Club.

Here’s how:

1.    Come up with the topic. It could be anything that you like to do for instance topics in drawing, painting, sewing, paper making, book making, puppetry, collage, zine-making, embroidery, charcoals, pastels, poster design, stamp making, linoleum block printing, fabric dying, silkscreen, calligraphy, theater…the possibilities are endless. Art Club is open to anything.
2.    Contact Angela Wang or Anna Lehr Mueser to see the studio, check out materials, and decide on a date and time. They will also discuss with you funding and any other concerns. You will be reimbursed for any purchases of materials!
3.    Write up a blurb explaining the workshop, the time, the date, and the location.  This will be used to advertise for you.
4.    TEACH IT!

It should not be a scary prospect. There will be people available to answer any questions and to help you out. If you like to do it or find it relaxing, share it!
