Adult Art Enrichment: SPIRIT DOLLS
AGES 18+
In this four-week class, you will be invited to create a handcrafted doll that expresses whatever is needed to nourish your spirit. We will construct the body, mold the face, and dress and adorn her according to your own personal aesthetic. At our final class meeting, we will have a naming ceremony for our dolls.
Nawili G., resident artist at the Heidelberg Gallery, will be our Teaching Artist for this class. Nawili was recently featured in the Spring 2023 issue of Fiber Arts Now, highlighting her Tree Wrapping installation at the Heidelberg Project, for which she was the recipient of a Fiber Arts Now grant. She is currently participating in a group exhibit at The Gallery at Brewery Park, opening on May 6, 2023.
Bring items to embellish your doll: beads. broken jewelry, buttons, fabric scraps, yarn, the sky's the limit!
