Open Art Space is a relaxed, weekly, drop-in program for LGBTQ+ high school students and their allies who are interested in thinking about, and making, art in a creative and welcoming environment.
Design and take home your own MoMA tote bag in this two-part workshop, taking place on Thursday, February 27, and Thursday, March 6, at 4:30 p.m.
Carve linoleum-cut stamps and pair them with mixed-medium techniques like stenciling, painting, and embellishing to design a tote that’s uniquely yours. Celebrate your individuality by reflecting on personal stories, identities, and artistic expression as you transform a MoMA tote into a one-of-a-kind work of art.
This program is free and open to all high school–age participants. No previous art-making experience or registration is necessary.
Open Art Space meets every Thursday, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., at the Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Education and Research Building, located at 4 West 54 Street, near Fifth Avenue.
Metrocards, snacks, and supplies will be provided.
