DIY Salon III: Cut Paper
My friend Cherry Sunshine thought the Museum of Arts and Design’s DIY Salon: Cut Paper might be a good fit. Fortunately for me, MAD thought the same thing.
On December 10th I’m going to be showing how to make Star Light Minis. Basically, the same thing as the original Star Lights, only smaller (duh). And these are lit by Christmas lights. If you’ve got nothing to do on the 10th (and you have $10), come on by, starts at 6.
A little more info:
Join MAD in the Open Studios for a night of hands-on art making, music, food, and drink in celebration of the Museum’s current exhibition Slash: Paper Under the Knife. Local do-it-yourself artists will demonstrate their personal skills and help guide you in creating your own paper-based projects. Techniques will range from book-making to jewelry-making, among other cut paper projects. In addition to do-it-yourself workshops, the DIY Salon will include drinks, snacks, and a live DJ. Guided tours of Slash will be available. Over 200 people did-it-themselves at this event last year, so don’t miss out this time around!
Guest artists inlcude:
- Esther K. Smith, book artist and co-founder of Purgatory Pie Press. Make your own instant book. . .
- Ben Light, of B. Light Designs. Manilla envelopes become magic lanterns. . .
- Jewler Sarah Abramson, creating paper jewelry. . .
- Katie Sokoler, of Color me Katie. Silhouettes!
and more. . .
Looks like it will be a lot of fun.
