Proctors, Schenectady, New York

Learn a skill, tradition, craft and art form that you just won’t want to put down! This series of workshops will explore a variety of artistic mediums, site-specific public artwork and their application to contemporary art.

Participants will make a small work of art, then a site-specific sculpture! In the style of the writing/drawing game, "The Exquisite Corpse," participants will coil, twist, cut and paste a small part of the unknown whole. The entire class will work collectively to create a public sculpture for the new Robb Alley at Proctors.
