Family Art Day / May 11
WHEN: Saturday, May 11 / attend any time between 10 AM-2 PM
DESCRIPTION: With guidance from the CAC team, families will explore the work of late printmaker Stephen Rengstorf and photographer Susan Kirt whose practices are both motivated by their love of nature, animals, and the outdoors. Rengstorf worked with linoleum and woodcut block prints that celebrated his love of birds, and Kirt’s captivating photography highlights the endangered Tallgrass Prairie ecosystems of Chicago’s region.
Visitors can then move into the classroom to create a series of projects inspired by both Rengstorf’s and Kirt’s work. Projects will include Gelli printing with nature imagery, bird + bug drawings, and landscape collages. All supplies provided, and you may want to dress for a mess!
TUITION: This event is free + all ages are welcome
Please note: Registrations are per group, not per person attending. The Registration Form will prompt you to list the headcount and ages of your group members.
