Handmade in American mini lab
CRAFT LABS
HandMade will present a series of free lectures to be held on the second Tuesday of every month from 6 to 8 pm. These Craft Labs will address emerging and mid-career craft artists' needs. The lectures will be taught by HandMade's new Executive Director, Gwynne Rukenbrod.
Please call 828-252-0121 or email Jami Wilds to confirm your spot for the upcoming lectures. Lectures will be held at HandMade in America's office located at 125 South Lexington Avenue in Asheville.
May 10 - Critiques
Artists often don't get together to formally critique each others work, but it can be one of the best learning experiences. Hearing what someone else sees when they look at your work gives you new insight to what you make. Come participate in a formal critique of your work with HandMade's Executive Director, Gwynne Rukenbrod. Everyone who wishes to participate must bring one piece for critique.
