MEMORY WARE: TRANSFORM TRINKETS INTO ART
Thursday, April 9 | 5 — 8 pm | Lakeside Center Commons | Instructor: Ryan Doberstein | Cost: $30
Turn everyday objects into extraordinary works of art. Explore the folk art tradition of Memory Ware, where small items—pot shards, buttons, shells, coins, beads, toys, and other symbolic mementos—are embedded in clay around a base object to create something unique. Guided by bricolage artist Wolfgang Ryan (Ryan Doberstein), you’ll learn principles of scale, balance, color, texture, and proportion to design pieces that are both personal and visually striking. Materials are provided, but participants are encouraged to bring their own special trinkets and sentimental treasures to incorporate. A perfect blend of craft and contemporary sculpture.
Cancellations must be made five days in advance of the initial class session in order to be eligible for a refund to allow for system processing. Nicolet College reserves the right to cancel, reschedule, substitute instructors, or make any changes to classes as necessary. Age requirement for Community Education classes: Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
