Join Visiting Artist Marissa Glover for a “pop-up” studio. Work collaboratively to create an interactive textile installation celebrating the natural world. Use recycled, thrifted, and salvaged materials to form flowers, plants and trees that celebrate the diversity of ecosystems from the mountains to the sea. As we repurpose items through creating beautiful art, we become part of a greater conversation about our role in nature and how we can help maintain its beauty and health.

Join Visiting Artist Roberta March for a “pop-up” studio in the Makerspace! Use markers and art supplies to create designs, patterns and pictures on individual wood pieces. These individually decorated pieces are then contributed to a communal, large-scale wooden butterfly mosaic. The image of the butterfly was chosen for this project because it is a species endangered and impacted by climate change, but is also a symbol of hope and change. Just as caterpillars transform into butterflies, so can we all work together to make positive changes for the earth. The final mosaic titled “Butterfly-Migration Pattern” will be viewable on the Museum & Theatre website.

Join Visiting Artist Pamela Moulton for a “pop-up” studio in the Makerspace! Use abandoned fishing gear including ropes and nets to construct elements for an immersive public art sculpture called, “Every Tree Tells a Story.” Additionally, visitors are invited to create textile elements, using a myriad of materials such as sparkly gems, shiny fabrics, and trinkets to add to an underwater forest. This work is enlivened through interactions, selfies, and the joyous play that happens during these collaborations.
