Marks, Materials and Practice

with Meg Kaczyk

$90 MEMBER PRICE: $81

In this new workshop, you'll explore the tactile, expressive, and meditative qualities of shape and line. Teaching artist Meg Kaczyk will guide you through simple visual prompts that inspire symbol-making. Over two hours, you'll develop your own personal visual vocabulary through repetition, creating unique symbols using a variety of dry and wet media — including sumi ink, charcoal, acrylic, and graphite — as well as subtractive techniques like erasure and resist.

Mark-making as a practice encourages relaxation while building a practical understanding of how different media respond to different surfaces, helping you develop line and symbol as elements of your art. You'll leave with a bound booklet of your exploration pages.

TOTAL COST: $90

Course Fee: $60

Non-refundable Materials Fee: $30

LEVEL: Beginner to Intermediate

AGE GROUP: Ages 15+
