Bookmaking with the MFA
Wednesday, Nov. 18, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. ET
Join us as we explore the delightful world of bookmaking. We’ll view artwork from the exhibition, “Picasso, Miro, Dali: Unbound,” along with other inspiring artwork from the collection at the Museum of Fine Arts. We will then embark on our own bookmaking project, creating beautiful and easy circular books that don’t require any sewing. Then we will fill our books with our own beautiful artwork!

Create With Clay

Tuesday, Nov. 24, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. ET

Join us for a workshop using soft, air-dry clay to make playful creatures and/or nature-inspired forms. Working with a range of vibrant colors, participants will be invited to shape simple designs, blend colors, and explore hand-building miniature sculptures in a relaxed, supportive space. Finished pieces can be displayed in your home, gifted to others, or the clay can be placed back into the air-tight containers for use on another day.

*Please choose one workshop and email Zakim_Center@dfci.harvard.edu to register.
