Kids Paper Bag and Paint Workshop at MSA, Saturday July 10
MSA invites kids and adults to work with artist Nick Terry this Saturday, July 10, 1:00-3:00. Pre-registration is not required and visitors to Marfa are welcome. The project will involve working with paper bags and paint. Bags will be cut, folded, collaged and painted with each artist creating their own unique work of art. Bags will be provided but if the artist has one that is appealing, it may be brought to the workshop.
Nick Terry is an abstract painter who exhibits his work widely. This is a rare opportunity for kids and adults to work with him in an informal and supportive environment.
MSA is located at 106 East San Antonio. This project is funded in part by the Texas Commission on the Arts and the City of Marfa, Department of Parks and Recreation. Contact: Ellie Meyer-Madridat [email protected] or 432-729-4616.
