The New Year in the Studio

Posted on December 23, 2013 by Contemporary Craft

Happy Holidays Everyone,

As you?re already enjoying the season or getting ready to start in on the cookies, I would like to share a few things and introduce what?s coming your way in the New Year.? Our first Crafts and Drafts (Ugly Sweaters) took place this month and it was a huge success!? We had a full workshop and a big thanks goes out to everyone that attended.? There are more to come each month starting in February, make sure you get a spot early!? http://clients.mindbodyonline.com/ws.asp?studioid=23447&stype=-8&sTG=42&sView=day

Once we get into January, the Studio will pick up the pace. If you have a 12-16 year old in your life that enjoys crafting, our next Artist and Kids workshop is on January 18th.? Artist Laura Jean McLaughlin will be in the Studio from 10 am-5pm to create mosaics. ? This is a free creative workshop, so please call the Studio to register that special teen!

After that, the ever-popular in-service day for teachers will be happening on January 20th.? This Teachers and Crafters In-Service day is full of learning. Thanks to a generous donation, for $10, teachers have the opportunity to register for one of two workshops from 9am-12pm that would normally cost $45.? The two options are:

Wirework: The Stuff Cuff with Gerry Florida

If you?re coming for the day, be sure to pack a bagged lunch because at 12:30pm, special guest Steve Gorelick will give a lecture related to the current exhibition at SCC.?Steve is a Distinguished Lecturer in the Department of Film and Media Studies at Hunter College. ?For more information regarding his work and research, vist: http://ima-mfa.hunter.cuny.edu/?ima-faculty=steve-gorelick-2? The day is open to anyone of interest, not just teachers.? However, because teachers receive a discounted rate for this day, please call or email thestudio@contemporarycraft.org to register if you are a teacher.

From there we start a season full of favorites along with some new workshops.? To take a look at what we have, visit:

In the meantime, best wishes as you enjoy any of the holidays that you celebrate during this season.

Looking forward to seeing you in the Studio,
