TUESDAY FOLK ART WORKSHOP
Instructor: Marjory Cole

Most of you know me from working in the office or as Maya's Mom, but did you know that in another life I was a graphic artist and a teacher? I have both a B.A. in Graphic Design and a Teacher Certification (K-5). I worked in advertising for 4 years, but missed working with children. So I went back to school for my certification and taught for 4 years until Maya was born. Now that she's old enough, I'm excited to combine both passions to teach at Kipling House.

I believe the most important gift an art teacher can give her students is the confidence to express their individual creativity. Students will be inspired by Folk Artists to explore their own unique style. Folk Artists have no formal art training and are driven to create by passion alone. The innocence and purity present in Folk Art appeals to young children and introduces them to a new way of thinking about creativity. By studying the artwork of this very special and unique group of artists, students will have the opportunity to create brilliant artwork that reflects their own love of art!

I will be teaching two week workshops that will explore many mediums. The first workshop will focus on one of my favorite folk artists, Mose Tolliver. We'll have a ball painting unique self-portraits on scraps of wood. The following week we will switch from paint to clay as we study the whimsical pottery of the Meaders family to mold our own creations. Tuition fee is $45 (includes materials and snack). We will meet from 3:00 - 5:00p.m. Class size is limited to 8 and based on a first come basis. More exciting workshops coming every month.

Session 1 (advanced primary and first years) will meet on October 3 and October 10.
Session 2 (second and third years) will meet on October 17 and October 24.
