Daily -ist List: Thursday

051007_lawndale.jpgFree Artist Workshop at Lawndale Art Center

Today's Daily -ist is actaully a double-header. So if your social calendar is packed like ours, you're in luck. There's another one tomorrow.

Join Lawndale Studio Resident Donna Huanca as she creates a fabric collage mural in the Lawndale Project Space. Work along with Donna and learn concepts and skills such as conceptualizing vertically and in large-scale, as well as using fabric as a medium to communicate color and texture.

Bring friends, family and your old blankets, towels, clothing and contribute to this community mural project.

Donna explores her family's history through recreating found photos from her father's service in the military and the jungles of South America.

She will host two workshops where the public is welcome to assist her in the creation of these large-scale murals "painted" in fabric. Fabric and clothing donations encouraged. Lawndale will supply the other materials. Adults and Children over 10 welcome. (scissors and glue guns will be used).
