Description

Two Day Intensive Workshop, August 3 & 4, 10AM-4PM

In this two-day workshop participants will have a hands-on opportunity to work with one of DC’s most dynamic sculptors, Melissa Ichiuji, known for her visceral, emotionally charged, and doll-like sculptures. Ichiuji will demonstrate her method of building a figure from the inside out using found materials, textiles, and meaningful artifacts. Participants will use movement, sketching and guided visualization to unlock the body and mind and learn techniques to create a uniquely personal AVATAR sculpture. Cost for the class is $275 (all materials included).

To register for the class, please call 202-885-3617 or email museum@american.edu
