Art in the Everyday Community Quilt Project – Assembly Workshop Day
Assembly Workshop on Saturday, October 20, 10am – 4pm | After Party to follow, 4pm – 6pm
Volcano Art Center is hosting a unique social engagement art project through visiting artist Laura Phelps Rogers that will be going on throughout the year. Your participation, support and involvement are encouraged and appreciated.
ART IN THE EVERYDAY community quilt project is a sculptural social engagement public work, facilitated through community engagement and created by the community.
Through community involvement and participation Laura hopes to construct a monumental sculptural quilt built out of round wood 5″ pieces. The artist provides the blank piece and asks each participant to create something on the blank out of every day objects or their take on the everyday through their artistic medium (the only restrictions are weight and natural materials must be sealed).
All participants are invited to attend this assembly day workshop. Cost is a $10 donation to Volcano Art Center. Your blank piece may be obtained by picking up a packet at the Volcano Art Center Administration Office or at the Wailoa Art Center or by requesting a piece be mailed. Each packet contains a return envelope that will require approximately $1.50 postage to return.
