Paint Pouring, with the MFA

Wednesday, April 15, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. ET

Create some new art for your space! In this workshop, you’ll use Ready Pour Ocean Vibe pre-mixed acrylic pouring paint to engage in a dynamic paint pouring experience. Using Light Turquoise, Light Blue, Tide Blue, and Beige, we’ll explore simple pouring techniques to create beautiful swirled and marbled effects with an ocean-inspired palette. Let the colors lead, and we’ll delight in the art that is revealed.

Wire Sculptures

Tuesday, April 28, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. ET

Join us as we get playful with bending and twisting! Explore the wonderful world of wire sculpture! Inspired by a selection of dynamic artwork on view at the Museum of Fine Arts, we’ll learn about making our own sculptures out of wire. We’ll learn a basic technique for making wire people or animals. The possibilities are endless with the kinds of creations you can make.
