July Open Studio - Saturday, July 30 at noon: Collaborative Art Begins!
Hello, hello!
I hope all is well with everyone. We normally meet for Open Studio every third Saturday of the month, but July is an exception. I apologize for the last minute notice. It will be on July 30th this month. (more details below) Hope to see you all there!
P.S. In June we talked about having a group showing of our art starting in October. We discussed creating collaborative works for the show. This could integrate any art form think big! Essentially, each person would come up with a concept (broad or specific), and then ask others to create separate pieces based on that concept. The pieces would then be collected and a final piece would be compiled by the person who came up with the concept originally. It will be a fun creative process that will take some time...
Ex:
I choose a concept - "photographs of water"
I explain my concept to others
Everyone takes a picture of water as they interpret the concept
Everyone brings their pictures back to me
I compile a collaborative piece with everyone's artwork
It's a beautiful blend of working together, communicating, letting go, etc...
The Block 745 Oak Avenue Parkway, Folsom, CA.
What is Open Studio?
It’s a FREE event for people looking for a place to create art and create community.
Artist of all kinds are encouraged to join us for this FREE, studio-style workshop, where the main objective is to create art that expresses who you are and challenges you as an artist.
Where is it?
The Block
745 Oak Avenue Parkway
Folsom, CA
(Part of the Lakeside church campus)
Who is Open Studio for?
Open Studio is for any artist looking to create art and get to know other artists. We encourage all painters, sculptors, sketch artists, photographers, welders, woodworkers, musicians, dancers, actors, writers, film makers, poets, and other artists of all kinds to join us!
Why should I come to an event like this?
Simply put, artists work better in community. To have another creative person to bounce ideas off of, share feedback with, and just have a good time with while you create is a very valuable tool for any artist. The goal of Open Studio is not only to create art, but also to create community among local artists. At Open Studio, we aim to encourage not only your creative side, but also your social side.
What do I bring?
Whatever creative medium you want to work in that day. It doesn’t cost anything, but you will have to bring your own supplies. Sometimes we bring things we want to share with others just to see if it inspires someone else.
Yay, come join us!
Sincerely,
Katie Murphy
