Time: 4 pm - 7 pm
Member: $60 Non-Member: $66
Celebrate the joy of the Winter Solstice with a cheerful, creative gathering. We’ll craft glowing lamps and tabletop lanterns using upcycled, recycled, and vibrantly colorful materials, transforming the ordinary into extraordinary pieces of light and magic. Each lamp or lantern will shine as a symbol of renewal and new beginnings. No experience needed—just bring your spark and enjoy a playful, uplifting process while you connect and engage with new and old friends. All materials provided, along with sparkling wine and fizzy water, as we enjoy making art and the return of the light together.
Hint: these lamps and lanterns will make perfect holiday gifts!
Miranda believes that art is for everyone. Making art together in a space without judgment challenges pre-conceived notions and inspires dialogue, cultivating understanding and compassion.
Artist Bio:
Who is Miranda? I grew up in a cozy Vermont town, basking in nature's changing beauty. Creating art with my mom and friends sparked my imagination and led me to the Maine College of Art, where I continued to appreciate New England’s lush landscapes. My journey then took me to Western North Carolina, a vibrant place that fuels my creativity, drawing inspiration from its biodiversity and community connections. Through my artistic endeavors, I have come to understand that our ties with one another and with nature are essential. In a world where capitalism often encourages us to see ourselves as isolated individuals, I believe in breaking down those barriers. Art-making and appreciation belong to everyone, transcending titles and credentials. Engaging with art is a way for us to reconnect—not only with each other but with the earth itself.
