Community School of Arts
Community School of the Arts at The Mennello Museum is a workshop program partnership between Women in the Arts Inc and The Mennello Museum of American Art that is offered to students so that they may expand their experience in the art world through connecting to the museum environment and creating their own artwork inspired by artists on display.
In Fall 2016, over the course of three workshops, students ages 11 to 21 engaged with the works on display in Three American Sculptors, learning about artists Alice Aycock, Deborah Butterfield, and Barbara Sorensen. Not only did students get to analyze and interpret sculptural forms, they also learned the artists’ collaborative and intensive art-making processes, and were led by Sorensen to create their own Boats. The workshops culminated in an opening reception where students displayed their museum labeled works of art alongside the powerhouse sculptors they studied and worked with!
