Saturday, January 11th & 18th from 1-3pm at MakeShift Art Space (306 Flora St.) $30, NOTAFLOF & sliding-scale pricing available. Facilitated by Zion Georges (@zionartistry).

These workshops will explore drawing abstract representations of emotional expressions on the face through proportions, values, and color.

In the first workshop, we will see various artistic styles and their use of size and shape of facial features to elicit specific emotions. From this observation, we will begin to create our sketches using these distortions.

In our second class, we will have our sketches and begin to use color and shading to create more emotive and surreal depictions of the face.

Throughout these classes, participants will deepen their understanding of the importance of art that deviates from realism and how abstractions can communicate complex human emotions.

1. All ages and experience levels are welcome!

2. No one is turned away for lack of funds. Additionally, sliding scale pricing is available. Please contact us first for this option.

3. Email education@makeshiftartspace.org with any questions or concerns.

4. Materials are included in the cost of the workshop.

From 1-3 PM on Fridays, stop by Make.Shift’s Open Art Studio and craft whatever you’d like with the supplies and tools we have available (including vintage magazines and collage materials, paint of all kinds, pens, pencils, yarn, embroidery thread, and fabric)! Refreshments available.

Saturday, January 4th from 1-3pm at MakeShift Art Space (306 Flora St.) $15, NOTAFLOF. Facilitated by Shirene Soleiman.

This poetry workshop seeks to teach people how to use creative writing to access, process, and directly communicate their emotions (both positive and negative). Steps include freewriting, visualization, identifying consistencies or running themes, and stripping away excess words. The goal is to write a poem that is concise but still powerful. Through abstract language and metaphors, participants will learn to take the reader straight to the gut punch of what they’re feeling. This workshop is beginner-friendly.

Saturday, November 9th & 16th from 1-3pm at MakeShift Art Space (306 Flora St.) $35, NOTAFLOF. Facilitated by local artist Favio Guzman.

Favio Guzman-Estrada, a local Indigenqueer multidisciplinary artist, will facilitate the next two weeks of the workshop and teach attendees block printing techniques. After studying in Guam and seeing ancient CHamoru pottery remnants with intricate designs (ceramics and pictographs in caves), Favi started practicing block-printing, and has since taught several workshops!

• The first session on Nov 9th will include introductions, group norms, and a history of block printing practices, and participants will start designing their blocks.

• The second session on November 16th will then get into carving and printing on clothes & fabrics!

You can stay connected with Favi by following them on Instagram @favioguzman_, where you can book them for photos and buy their works at art markets! You can see Favi’s work now at Eleventh Hour.
