WORKSHOP AT CAPACITY

Adventures in Clay with Helen Oliver Adelson is the second installment of the Vega Arts Workshop series 2020, a free adult education initiative designed to offer individuals access to working artists and broaden opportunities to express themselves through the visual arts.

Adelson is known for her large-scale landscape and portrait paintings exploring the inner and exterior life of people and places. This workshop, facilitated by Adelson, provides participants with clay to sculpt self-portraits utilizing abstract shapes and lines to explore their own interior landscapes and personal stories. No previous experience in sculpture or clay modeling is required and multiple skill levels in art making are welcome. The workshop is free, and all materials are provided. Seating is limited. Prior registration is required to attend. Reserve your spot by registering at the link here. Spots fill quickly!

About The Vega Arts Workshop Series

Inspired by the legacy of Arturo Vega, the Vega Arts Workshop Series is an adult art-education program designed to provide free hands-on experiences facilitated by acclaimed artists exhibiting work at Howl! Happening: An Arturo Vega Project. Each workshop involves an original activity related to an aspect of the artist’s practice, designed for participants to complete within the two hours allotted for the workshop. The purpose of the program is to offer high-quality adult art education, introduce students to working artists, share the rich cultural heritage of the East Village and the Lower East Side, expand outreach to the greater Manhattan area and surrounding boroughs, and support individual self-expression through the arts. The Vega Arts Workshop Series takes place year-round and coincides with the exhibition season at Howl. Workshops are free and all materials are provided by Howl so there are no barriers to participation for the public.
