Totemic Creatures: Building with Found Objects, Tools & Ephemera w/ Geoffrey Gorman

Campus Location To Be Determined • Touchstone Center for Crafts 1049 Wharton Furnace Road FarmingtonPA  15437 Organized by Touchstone Center for Crafts

About this event

All Levels $25-$50 Materials and Studio Fees* Immerse yourself in the guided process of creating totemic sculptures and spirit animals using found objects, cast-aside tools, hardware, discarded furniture parts, ephemera, and just about anything else. Inspired by natural creatures and ancient totems, this workshop emphasizes creative reuse, storytelling through materials, and building sculptural forms with non-traditional resources. You will be encouraged to explore both personal and collective narratives through your sculptures, connecting to a sense of place, nature, and the past lives of the materials you incorporate. *Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
