Lecture: Uncovering Censorship In Art

Some of what are considered great masterpieces today were at first considered offensive, immoral, or harmful to society. Form your own opinion as Robin Douglas explores censorship in art—who made it, who censored it, and who fought for freedom of expression.

Workshop: Multi-Perspectives On Alternative Surfaces

Robin Douglas will provide a number of natural and man-made materials to inspire 2D and 3D art-making with unique, imaginative, and one-of-a-kind surfaces in this two-day class on Tuesday and Thursday, November 7 and 9. Participants should bring any found materials or objects to add for upcycling into art objects using paints and other media for this creative adventure. A variety of other materials will be provided.

Exhibition Reception
