I am thrilled to conduct our “We Write The Book” Neighborhood Engagement Artist Residency (NEAR)artist residency at the Northridge Public Library supported by the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs . This residency is a collaboration between myself, the Library and the DCA.
Our second workshop in the series saw us creating a “FOLDED FAN” book, with people of all ages working together in community. Families, adults, children and community members worked side by side, learning about materials, techniques and how to put it all together to create a unique book art work!
