Five days : September 30 – October 4, 2024

CLASS DESCRIPTION : Explore creating faces, hands, and feet with polymer clay. Create movement, expression, articulation, energy, costume and character with wire armature and cloth. From learning foundation information and skills through balancing the act of the figure, this class is intended to open an avenue of self expression, enjoyment of the art form and reflection.

Re-creating Expression

Our class in October was derailed by COVID. It was something very unsettling for all of us. As a way to make a difference and try to lift off from a circumstance we had no way of controlling we have designed a set of sessions to complete the class we had to close. How do you write about this? It happened. Full stop.

FOUR DAYS : October 7 – October 10, 2024

CLASS DESCRIPTION : Structured studio time to further develop your technique, work with polymer clay, and develop expression with the medium. This studio time is offered with priority registration to students who registered for 2023’s Church Creating Expressive Figures. After February, the space will be opened to anyone who wishes to join.

Please contact the Shake Rag Center for the arts office with any questions at info@ShakeRagAlley.org or 608-987-3292.

Call me . . . polymer clay, chain, imagination . . .

    Hi, Please let me know when you know when you’ll be teaching in Vancouver Island and the theme. I’m thinking of making the trip. It would be an excuse to see another area of Canada. Sarah Hausauer

    Hi Kate, I’m so excited–can’t wait to hear about the spring class on Vancouver Island. I put my name on the waitlist last year when I missed out by a single place. Yeah!

    Merry Christmas! See you in the New Year :)

    Best, Carol Zuckerman
