Time: 10 pm - 1 pm

Join Miranda Wildman in the new Art League Classroom for a delightful day of creating festoonery for all occasions. Using a mixture of recycled, upcycled, vintage, and new supplies we will construct beautiful 3D party decorations. Miranda will guide you every step of the way!
All of the art materials you need to create will be provided and each participant will leave with enough festoonery to decorate for any fête. This workshop is designed with everyone in mind so all are welcome to attend. No art experience required! The focus throughout our time together will be playful and explorative. You do not need to know how to create 3D art to enjoy making art with us!
What in the world is festoonery? According to a few different dictionaries it's a collection of festoons, and festoons are a string or chain made of flowers, foliage, ribbon, or similar materials suspended usually in a curve between two points such as posts or corners of a room. Festoonery is used to decorate a room or space for a special occasion or milestone event of some kind.
Do you have to have an event to enjoy having fetoonery in your life? Absolutely not! You can decorate any corner of your life with the festoonery you create. I love making festoons and adorning doorways, windows, hallways, ceilings, or any place that deserves a little pizazz any time of year. But if you do have a special occasion coming up, this is the perfect way to add some festive, handmade art to the atmosphere of celebration.
Artist Bio:
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. Through her artistic endeavors, she has 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, Miranda believes in breaking down those barriers. Art-making and appreciation belong to everyone, transcending titles and credentials, and engaging with art alongside each other is a way for us to reconnect and realize that we are all a part of the same.
