Be Weird: Paint Everything! Upcycling is a force for good in this age of landfill diversion: Acrylic paints can cover a multitude of difficulties. Tired of an old jean jacket, footstool, broken toy, or purse? Paint them! You will be guided through proper adhesion and sealant techniques for your work's durability. Bring your objects (chair sized or smaller) and be ready to paint masterpieces! Instructor Linda Zolten Wood, Cleveland Institute of Art Graduate, has designed floats for Parade the Circle since its inaugural year and has created a thriving business by painting unusual everyday objects including Rain Barrels; see Www.zoltenwooddesign.com.
