For the first time ever, two local organizations have joined together to present a program directed at bringing workshops in various art media to people in the community. The event is free and open to people of all ages. Artists from the Muddy Creek Artists Guild will offer free training in photography, batik, pottery, jewelry making, drawing, collage/decorative kites, and painting. The participants will be “doing art” in the workshops, actually taking photographs, painting, etc. under the guidance of a professional Guild artist. Joining with the Guild is the Shady Side Rural Heritage Society which will host the event at its Captain Salem Avery Museum,1418 EW Shady Side Road, on Sunday, August 1, from noon until 4:30 p.m.
In order to have enough supplies on hand, interested people are asked to RSVP to the Museum’s office, 410 867 4486.
All of the art training sessions will have a nautical theme. The members of the Guild who will be teaching will supply materials needed for their special media, and will assist guests in learning the basic techniques involved. An individual can participate in as many activities as he wishes.
At the conclusion of the afternoon, the art work created by guests will be displayed, and each person will receive a certificate of participation.
Also planned is the painting of one large canvas on which everyone can add their personal touch. The canvas will be displayed later in the Museum.
From 5 to 7 p.m. an old fashioned picnic and music jam will be held on the Museum’s spectacular waterfront. Those wishing to attend are asked to bring their own picnic and instruments.
Boy Scouts are expected to have cool drinks for sale, as their personal fund raiser.
