About this Event
Join us for a Unique Painting + Culture Experience with
Tlingit Tribal Member & Formline Artist Bill Pfeifer, Jr
You'll create your own traditional, or green, purple, & fuschia NW Coast Native Art frog on a red cedar plank.
Xíxchs (frogs) were principal characters in many traditional stories that were (and still are) part of the oral history of Tlingit culture.
Have fun painting and encounter the rich connections of an ancient art form, which depicts animals, supernatural beings, and figures from oral histories.
What to Expect:
-A hands-on chance to learn technique, paint, ask Bill questions, and honor a living tradition.
-No painting experience is required; all you need is the willingness to use your inner creativity and embrace the beauty of formline.
-This unique art-making session invites you to explore the visual language of the native peoples of the Northwest Coast of North America.
