Tuesdays, Sep 12 &amp; 266﻿:30-8:30pmThis workshop is free to register but we ask for $5 for supplies, you can pay in-person.Artist Bio: Ashley Cook is a queer, multidisciplinary artist and designer with a keen interest on how we perceive and notice the world through language and metaphors. She works with paper mechanics, charcoal, acrylic painting, block printing, or a combination of these mediums. These workshops focus on shifting perspectives and how we see the world through playing with alternate ways of seeing, mapping, and visualizing the world. When we free ourselves from “one way” of seeing, what possibilities open up for us and for the world? In these workshops you will explore using paper, paint, sketching and other paper-based techniques in a fun and supportive environment.
