Resident Artist Mary Coble invites young people to explore art made with nontraditional yet familiar materials. After a tour of the The Panza Collection, Coble leads participants in hands-on artmaking workshops. Aspiring young artists are asked to consider ideas about collecting and how to group and collage colors as well as different shapes and sizes of "found text" to create symbols and images relevant to their own lives. Mary Coble is a DC educator and performance artist whose research-based work deals with topics such as identity and tolerance. Participation in all three workshops in encouraged but not required.Note: Materials used in the projects may be messy. Please dress appropriately.
