Join us for artist-led workshops in Wainger Gallery on select Thursdays! Each two-hour workshop will feature a different artmaking theme, drawing inspiration from artwork in our collection. Together we will look closely at artworks and learn about the artist’s intentions and processes before making our own works of art with guidance from visiting artists and museum staff. On March 20, guest artist Meg Morley will introduce the basics of basket weaving with a sculptural twist. We’ll look at examples of woven art from the collection and experiment with innovative techniques.
Meg Morley is a craft-based artist in the Detroit metro area. Creating art has been her way of processing the world through making: hands-on, experimenting, learning, problem-solving, and puzzling. She works with a range of craft-based techniques to respond to nagging curiosities about topics such as comfort, control, and utility.
Most recently, Meg’s work has been exhibited at Matéria Edition Gallery and in a group show with Fiber Club* as part of Detroit Month of Design. She was invited to participate in Arrowmont’s Pentaculum residency, has exhibited in many group shows, and is a member of the National Basketry Organization.
$25 per participant, $20 for ArtMembers, intended for ages 16 and up. Pre-registration is required through our website.
