Exploring the relationship between art\, power and politics\, her curatorial practice examines the physical and psychological connection to land\, the trauma of displacement and the Black female body as contested terrain. Gilbert’s intersectional critical analysis exposes the fault lines in the aesthetic regimes that dominate visual culture\, specifically by presenting artists whose contributions to the canon have been overlooked\, particularly women artists from the “Deep South” and the “Global South”. Most recently the Curator of African American Manuscripts at the Smithsonian Archives of American Art\, she has also held positions at The Art Institute of Chicago and The Studio Museum in Harlem. \nOver the course of her career she has addressed audiences at The Studio Museum in Harlem\, National Gallery of Art\, Smithsonian American Art Museum\, Howard University\, Fashion Institute of Technology and Swann Auction House. Figure and Force\, a conversation she moderated between Barbara Chase Riboud and Ilyasah Shabbaz for Solange’s Saint Heron\, exemplifies her commitment to expanding the audience for modern and contemporary art. \nIn July 2021\, Gilbert curated A Force For Change\, an exhibition presenting 26 contemporary women artists of African descent in New York benefiting UN Women. She is the co-curator of Mary Lovelace O’Neal: Whales Fucking which will open at MoAD in San Francisco\, California in November 2022. Since 2015 she has curated several museum and gallery exhibitions in the US and UK including Zohra Opoku: Draped Histories/Beyond Visage\, Sienna Shields: Invisible Woman and In The Eye of the Beholder. \nGilbert holds a BA in Political Science and a BA in African and African American Studies from the University of Michigan\, and a MA in Contemporary Art from the University of Manchester.  She has published catalog essays on several prominent artists\, including Deborah Roberts (Spelman University\, 2018); Alma Thomas (Mnuchin Gallery\, 2019); Chakaia Booker (ICA Miami\, 2021) and Mary Lovelace O’Neal (MoAD\, 2022). \nAttend the Zoom OPENING\, January 14th\, 2022\, at 7PM EST\, 3PM PST!\n

SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: "MOSTLY MONOCHROME"
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled to be included in the exhibition\, Mostly Monochrome\, presented online by the loved and respected  WoArt Blog\, and curated by WoArtBlog founder\,  Christina Massey\, offering a strong platform for Women Artists. \n\n\nNovember 1 – 30th\, 2021\nwww.woartblog.com.\n\n“Mostly Monochrome” is an online exhibition featuring artists using a mostly monochromatic approach to the creation of their work. Artworks with the reduced variant of color grab their viewers attention instead through their process\, materials\, composition and tonality.\nAs one scrolls through the exhibition\, you’ll be visually transitioning through subtle shifts in the monochromatic palette and visually stimulated through the juxtaposition of works from minimal color field paintings to extremely detailed and laborious drawings and sculptures.\nViewers are invited to scroll through the wide range of artistic styles and explore the work in the virtual gallery slideshow. Click on the images to get further details and make any purchases of Artworks.\nSupport the work of Women Artists\, shop the online store!\n\nFeaturing Artists: \nLaura Ahola-Young\, Lois Bender\, Laurey Bennett-Levy\, Angelica Bergamini\, Carol Bouyoucos\, Clare Burson\, Ai Campbell\, Jaynie Crimmins\, Marianne DeAngelis\, Debra Disman\, Pauline Galiana\, Veronika Golova\, Carolynn Haydu\, Erin Juliana\, Rachel Kohn\, Parvathi Kumar\, Barbara Laube\, Bonny Leibowitz\, Seren Morey\, Jane Nodine\, Judith Ornstein\, Dara Oshin\, Barbara Owen\, Lily Prince\, Eve Provost Chartrand\, Robin Roi\, Andra Samelson\, Amy Sands\, Mary Shah\, Barbara Sherman\, Christina Smith\, Lauren Smith\, Judi Tavill\, Jessica Tawczynski\, Shira Toren\, Ellen Weider\, Odeta Xheka\, Emna Zghal\, Tamar Zinn \nI am honored to have two works presented in the show\, “Before the Fall”\, and “Profusion”\, pictured below. \n \n \nHear our discussion on Clubhouse!\nArtists Who AND…\, ”Artists…giving back to the creative community”\, Debra Disman/Lois Bender/Laurey Bender-Levy\, Clubhouse\, November 17\, 2021

SUMMARY:Exhibitionista: TRICKSTERS & TRANSFORMATION at the Helms Design Center
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled to be participating in “Tricksters and Transformation”\, organized by Textile Arts LA\, on view at the Helms Design Center\, Studio E!\n \n“Textiles have the universally demonstrated capacity for holding meaning\, establishing connections\, and creating healing. As we emerge\, on many levels\, from the darkness into the light of awareness of isolation and injustice we have an opportunity and obligation to examine the status quo. This exhibition will allow the artist to step into the now and make work that opens doors within themselves\, thereby acting as a portal to a collective resurgence into a renewed relationship with the world. This awakening inspires transformation. \nThere is a deep potential for the artist to act as trickster\, agent of change\, or boundary crosser. After the pandemic and the social upheaval of the past eighteen months\, the artist has gained renewed agency for creating more enlightened definitions of meaning and new ways of seeing. \nThe pandemic can be a portal\, serving as a provocation to transformation.” \nI am showing “Torrent and Tangle: Keep Your House In Order”\, in a new configuration! \n \nJuror: Carol Shaw-Sutton \nCarol Shaw-Sutton has been exhibiting her fiber sculpture in the U.S. and internationally since the 1970s with the California Design Exhibitions\, the Young American Award exhibition at Museum of Art and Design in NYC\, three Lausanne Biennales in Switzerland and the Kyoto Museum of Art\, Japan.  Her work is included in numerous major museum collections including the Oakland Museum of Art\, The DeYoung Museum\, The Museum of Art and Design\, among others\, as well as corporate and private holdings worldwide.  She received three NEA Individual Artist Fellowships\, the prestigious Young American Award from the American Craft Council\, the United States/Japan and the United States/France Fellowships and many others from her city and university. Shaw-Sutton recently retired from the School of Art at CSULB where she headed their Fiber Program for more than thirty years and is now Professor Emeritus. \nArtist -in-residence Carmen Mardonez will be at the gallery. Please email Carrie Burckle or Lesley Roberts if you would like to meet one of us at the gallery to walk-through. Thank you for supporting textile arts in Los Angeles!

SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: Book As Art 2021: Muse
DESCRIPTION:The Book as Art v. 9.0: Muse\nPresented by the The Decatur Arts Alliance\nDecatur\, Georgia\n August 13–October 1\, 2021.\nThe Decatur Arts Alliance (DAA) presents the ninth edition of the juried exhibition of artists’ books\, The Book as Art\, August 13–October 1\, 2021. This edition will be installed once again at the Decatur Branch of the DeKalb County Public Library. If conditions allow\, the DAA will sponsor a limited opening on Friday\, August 27\, 2021\,or a virtual opening and tour of the exhibition. The exhibition is brought to you by Decatur Arts Alliance\, Georgia Center for the Book\, the DeKalb Co. Public Library\, DeKalb Library Foundation and Keep it Indie-catur. \n“Nine: a number both sacred and profane. This mystical numeral\, both spiritual and scientific\, is celebrated the world over and in all religions\, representing the brightest ands darkest aspects of the celestial and the terrestrial. Fulfillment\, completion\, reflection\, and birth are balanced with pain\, misfortune\, evil\, and death.\nFor the Ancient Greeks\, nine sisters born of heaven and memory gave inspiration to artists\, scientists \, and historians. They guided the feet and the fingers\, moved the brush and the pen\, swelled the chest\, and sweetened the voice. But when their gifts of love and wisdom were overshadowed by hubris\, the sisters punished and imprisoned those who forsook the purity of their spiritual gifts.\nThe muses still call out to artists world-wide\, placing in their minds the seeds of creation\, the word\, the phrase\, the form\, are born and transformed upon the page. Held in the hand\, a book can be a source of stability in unsettled times. Tactile and olfactory\, the black and white pages conjure emotions and images that endure longer than flickering light on small screens. From tablet to folio\, papyrus to scroll\, song to psalm—all are created as a concept that becomes thought\, becomes word\, becomes book\, becomes sculpture.\nThese objects\, in an increasingly digital world\, stubbornly survive and have proved a steady presence in our unprecedented isolation. Color and light\, script and structure\, translate thought and idea\, and bestow upon us\, the viewers\, the fruit of artistic inspiration. The objects in this exhibition will interpret the concept of the book and invite the viewer to look beyond the printed page to where ideas\, words\, and symbols are transformed and are transfigured. They are expressive\, iconic\, mystical\, and inspirational. They are\, in form\, muse.” \nBeautifully made volumes\, sculptural and conceptual interpretations\, and one-of-a-kind approaches to the book format as well as  wall-hung interpretations will be showcased! \nI am showing “Window Treatment“\, 13″ x 38″ x 9.25″\, a one-of-a-kind  sculptural Artists’ Book made of book board\, file folders\, paint\, hemp cord\, linen thread\, canvas\, mulberry paper and watercolor paper. It stands upright on a pedestal\, shelf\, table or other surface parallel to the floor. When opened\, it can span up to 38” wide. \n \nSee the Show! https://decaturartsalliance.org/book-as-art/\nEVENTS:\nSeveral events are planned throughout the run of the show. The Georgia Center for the Book inaugurated a series of virtual tours of the exhibition\, artist talks\, and discussions in 2020 that will be continued in 2021. Through these presentations artists were able to talk in depth about their books\, and lead us on virtual tours through their volumes. You can review these presentations at bookasart.com\, and on the Georgia Center for the Book’s YouTube channel \nThe Jurors: \nAnna Embree is a Professor for the MFA Book Arts Program in the School of Library Science and Information Studies at the University of Alabama. She teaches courses and workshops in bookbinding\, box making\, and special topics in book preservation and book history. Anna has a strong interest in the physical and material aspects of book structures\, collaborates with printers and papermakers on limited edition handmade books\, and has exhibited widely.\nAnna’s book work focuses on composition and form. When designing a single book or an edition\, she works to unify content\, structure\, and materials. The goal is to create a visually engaging work that facilitates interaction with the content through purposeful mechanical and operational design choices. \nBeth Shoemaker is the Rare Book Librarian at Emory University’s Stuart A. Rose Manuscript\, Archive & Rare Book Library in Atlanta. Her work includes cataloging\, collection development\, teaching and curating exhibits in the Emory Libraries. In 2018 she co-curated the exhibit Common Thread: Women’s Experience through Artists’ Books at Rose Library and was recently a featured speaker on the role of artists’ books in academic libraries for the Form & Function from Afar Conference\, organized by Book Paper Thread. At Emory she is the co-organizer of an event series called Bound with History\, where each event is focused on a portion of the rare book collection\, including artists’ books and pop-ups\, and attendees get to have a hands-on experience with collection material. \n Sande Wascher-James has been working with the book arts since the mid-nineties when she discovered that she could use all of the mediums she enjoyed working with in a format that varied greatly and had meaning—the book. One of the hallmarks of her work is purposefully using techniques such as embroidery and beading\, which are considered “women’s work”\, to deal with issues felt to be of importance to most women through the medium of book structures. The books are meant to be held in the hand and to be read\, as well as to be displayed in their sculptural format. She makes both one-of-a-kind books and small editions\, usually no more than two editions per year due to the intensive labor involved in making them. Sande feels that the books need to be both artistically beautiful and have a text that is as powerful as the imagery. Sande is a full time studio artist whose work has been in many exhibitions\, is held in both private and public collections\, and in publications. She has been honored with awards for her work in exhibitions\, and has work held by the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Yale\, Harvard\, Duke\, University of Washington\, and others.

Along with vast and never-ending self- education\, he studied visual art at the East Los Angeles College and California State University\, Los Angeles in the 1970s. Gronk is an enduring and influential figure in the Los Angeles and international art scenes — maintaining an active studio in downtown Los Angeles that functions as his live-work space and an epicenter for other artists and community members. Along with a core group of artists\, Gronk helped establish Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions (LACE) in 1978. In 1993\, a traveling retrospective of his work\, Gronkl: A Living Survey\, 1972 – 1993\, was organized by the Mexican Museum in San Francisco and traveled to several institutions including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). Gronk exhibited at LACMA again in 2011 for the exhibition ASCO: Elite of the Obscure. Gronk’s work is represented in numerous private and museum collections across the country\, including the Corcoran Gallery of Art and the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C.; the San Francisco Museum of modern Art (SFMoMa); the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA); and the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA)\, Los Angeles. Gronk’s Theater of Paint marks the artist’s first solo museum exhibition in Los Angeles in more than two decades.

SUMMARY:Exhibitionista: 2021 INTERNATIONAL ART OF THE BOOK Show
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled that Burning Bush has been accepted into the Rochester Public Library’s 2021 International Art of the Book show. \n \n\nTHE 2021 ART OF THE BOOK & PAPER SCULPTURE\n“In 2011\, we held the first Art of the Book exhibit in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Rochester Public Library. At the time\, we wanted to celebrate what has been at the core of libraries for centuries–the book. We marveled over the intricate interpretations of this humble format\, and we were thrilled with the response to the exhibit from the community.” \n“In subsequent years\, the exhibit has grown to include entries from all over the world\, featuring well-known artists for their exquisite work. We have built a reputation worldwide among book artists\, and we are so pleased to see that reputation upheld. \nBooks continue to ensnare the imagination\, both for their form and content. Artists manipulate those two components to create breathtaking\, mind-bending works of art that tease and cajole people to consider the intricacies of paper\, ink\, words\, and meaning. \nIn commemoration of the 10th Anniversary\, we are adding Paper Sculpture as a new category. This new category will celebrate the extraordinary use of paper\, in an art form that combines or shapes papers.” \nArtist Books are…\nworks of art realized in the form of a book. They are often published in small editions\, though sometimes they are produced as one-of-a-kind objects referred to as ‘unique.’ Artist Books have employed a wide range of forms including scrolls\, fold-outs\, concertinas\, or loose items contained in a box\, as well as bound printed sheets. Artists have been active in printing and book production for centuries\, but the artist book is primarily a late 20th century art form. \nAltered Books are…\nany book\, old or new\, that has been recycled by creative means into a work of art. They can be rebound\, painted\, cut\, burned\, folded\, added to\, collaged in\, gold-leafed\, rubber stamped\, drilled or otherwise adorned…and yes\, it is legal. They can also be composed entirely of unique materials. \nPaper Sculptures are…\nartworks created as sculptures using paper in some form as the predominant medium. These sculptures are three-dimensional and can be either free-standing or bas relief and would be considered art forms in themselves.  Paper sculpture can be functional or non-functional with attention to pushing the limits of how paper can be used and explores paper in inventive and unique ways. \nJuly 9\, 2021: Show opens\nSeptember 15\, 2021: Reception\, Award Ceremony\, 10th Anniversary party(date subject to change)\nOctober 30\, 2021: Exhibition closes.\nView the show:  AOB_2021_Program (1)\n

SUMMARY:Exhibitionista: LIMINAL at Verum Ultimum Art Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Verum Ultimum Gallery tasks artists to define “Liminal” for this first edition of this exhibition.\nI am thrilled to be part of this first edition of the theme: LIMINAL\, at Verum Ultimum Gallery through which artists are invited to explore the theme\, LIMINAL in any interpretation. Pictured: my work  The Gates\, (interior)\, 2019\, 7.5 x 20 x 10.25”\, mixed media/sculptural artists’ book. \n\n\nLiminal is the space between. What significance does transition (or the “space between“) have in your work or your artistic voice? Does your work reflect the liminal aspects of our pandemic-impacted world and the adaptation to a post pandemic existence? Does your work represent and or challenge the threshold to a more equitable society? Or\, perhaps it reflects a vehicle for expression through pure abstraction. \nAs with all Verum Ultimum’s calls for art\, the curator never seeks to drive the work\, the only hope is to unveil unique visions. All mediums and modes of expression have been welcomed from low brow\, pop surrealism\, realism\, abstraction\, and more. The term Liminal may be interpreted in many ways\, and is not necessarily meant to be a literal elucidation. \nLiminal is defined as\n1. relating to a transitional or initial stage of a process.\n2. occupying a position at\, or on both sides of\, a boundary or threshold.\n​One could argue that artists are conditioned to occupy the liminal state. And a successful studio is a space in flux\, poised for adaptation (to projects\, challenges\, and materials). The focus of the artist is the creative process or the place between the 2 boundaries of “the beginning” and “the outcome or result.” \nA gallery benefits from maintaining that liminal state\, too (adaptation is a constant). \nVerum Ultimum is celebrating it’s eighth year and this exhibition serves to herald the artists unique vision…especially during these challenging times! \nView the Show!!!

SUMMARY:Exhibitionista: The Fine Art of Denim at Pollak Gallery\, Monmouth University Center for the Arts
DESCRIPTION:I am excited to be included in:\n\n\n\n\nat Monmouth University Center for the Arts Pollak Gallery\nJune 17 – August 14 \, 2021\n \n \nDenim\, with all its symbols and dualities\, is a common item of clothing that unites many around the globe. Dad Jeans\, skinny jeans\, low riders\, bell bottoms\, boot leg\, wide leg\, no leg\, 501s\, 504s\, button fly\, stretch jeans\, the American dress code writ large across centuries. With so many styles available and ways to accessorize/manipulate the fabric\, denim has historically allowed for a freedom of expression representing both individuality and shifts in cultural movements. Denim comes in a wide range of blues and other colors\, washes\, fades and textures making it a perfect\, but not obvious\, medium to create fine artwork. Join us now\, for a re-imagining of the meaning of denim. Denim that was discarded can open up a new way of looking\, a startling way of seeing past the everyday. What we have abandoned\, will be presented again\, re-purposed from the lives we lived\, to moments we experience together “forever in blue jeans.” \nMonmouth University’s Center for the Art is exhibiting the work of artists  who use recycled denim in new and creative ways in paintings\, sculpture\, collages\, small constructions and wall hangings\, etc. from June 17 – August 14 \, 2021 in the Pollak Gallery. Works shown use denim as the principal medium of the piece and the fabric are reconstructed from its original form in some way.  \n \nSee The Show Here!\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Folded Fan Sculptural Artists’ Book: A Vehicle for Imagination\, Experimentation\, and Play
DESCRIPTION:The California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers presents: \nA workshop led by Debra Disman\nSaturday\, June 5\, 2021\n1:00 – 4:00 pm\, Pacific Time\nPresented live via Zoom \nThe “Folded Fan Book\,” Debra Disman’s personal name for this fun and versatile book structure\, is comprised of\nan accordion spine\, two covers\, and full size pages which “fan out” when the book is opened.\nThis structure can be treated as a traditional codex or built into a sculptural form limited only by the \ningenuity\, creativity\, and innovation of the maker. \nStudents will gather their own materials based on the supplies list provided and determine the size and content of their books\,\ninspired by examples of different ways this structure can be developed\, reimagined\, and used. \nWe will spend the first part of the workshop creating the basic structure\, then take off into unexplored territory\nwhere students can utilize their chosen materials to transform their books into personal explorations of their own histories\nor potential futures. Will YOUR BOOK become a container of memory\, visualization of an intention\, a container of dreams\, an excavated artifact?\nWhatever participants choose to create\, this book can become a vehicle for imagination\, experimentation\, and play. \nMaterials: Participants will supply and source tools and materials. The use of existing materials in your living/work space is encouraged.\nA list of supplies will be sent one month before the workshop. The Zoom link will be sent the week of the workshop. \nSkill Level: Open to all levels of experience \nRegistration: $50.00 USD for GBW members\,\n$60.00 USD for non-members.\nPlease register by May 15\, 2021. The workshop will not be recorded.\nThere is a cancellation fee of 10% of the registration fee up to 30 days before the workshop. No refunds are given for\ncancellations made within 30 days prior to the workshop. Registrations may not be shared and are non-transferable. \nPlease direct questions to\ncalifornia@guildofbookworkers.org. \nDebra Disman is a Los Angeles-based artist working \nprimarily in the form of the book\, both as a solo \npractitioner and in the public sphere of community \nengagement. She creates work and projects which \npush the boundaries of the book into new forms and \nmaterials. Her work is shown in museums\, galleries\, \nuniversities\, and libraries across the U.S.\ndebradisman.com\nInstagram

SUMMARY:Exhibitionista: "Turmoil and Transformation" at the Hera Gallery and Educational Foundation
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled to be showing “Torrent and Tangle: Keep your House In Order” in  the:\n“Turmoil and Transformation” show at the Hera Gallery and Educational Foundation\, a non-profit\, artist-run organization that  has continued to stimulate discussion and challenge perceptions for over 40 years. This creative space has allowed countless artists a place for transformation\, exploration\, and community with one another which has been BRINGING CREATIVITY TO THE COMMUNITY SINCE 1974 \n“2020 was a year that was filled with worldwide turmoil. The Pandemic. Another reckoning with racism and police brutality. Climate Change\, wildfires\, hurricanes\, and droughts.  The undermining and politicization of science. The widening political divide. An election with voting rights\, healthcare\, immigration\, paid sick leave\, income inequality\, living wages\, reproductive rights\, LGBTQIA rights\, our environment and the future of democracy at stake. \nIs this turmoil leading to transformation? And what kind of transformation is it going to be?“ \n \nHera Gallery/ Hera Educational Foundation presents work that addresses the current turmoil and visions of our future. What are the emotional\, physical and spiritual effects of the turmoil and how might they manifest into the transformation? What does our world look like and what might it look like post-2020. Will transformation reflect the multiplicity of voices of America? How will our future be transformed by the current chaos? \nThe juror\,  Francine Weiss is the Senior Curator at the Newport Art Museum in Rhode Island where she curates exhibitions of contemporary art\, photography\, and American art. Her recent exhibitions include “Andy Warhol: Big Shot\,”  “The Shapes of Birds: Contemporary Art of the Middle East and North Africa\,” and “Domestic Affairs” among others. Her past positions include Curator at the Photographic Resource Center (Boston\, MA)\, Acting Assistant Curator in the Department of Photographs at the National Gallery of Art (Washington DC)\, Curatorial Fellow at the deCordova Sculpture Park & Museum\, and Curatorial Fellow of American art at Harvard University Art Museums (both in MA) among others. She has taught art history at Wellesley College\, Simmons College\, and Boston University (all in MA) and has taught and advised students in the MFA program at the Institute of Art and Design at New England College. Dr. Weiss has a Ph.D. in American studies\, specializing in art and photography\, from Boston University and a B.A. from Wellesley College in English. She has received fellowships from the Smithsonian Institution (Washington DC)\, Georgia O’Keeffe Museum and Research Center (NM)\, Center for Creative Photography (AZ)\, The Huntington (CA)\, and Harry Ransom Center (TX).

SUMMARY:Bookmaking with Self-Compassion
DESCRIPTION:Recovery Justice: Being Well\n“Being Well” is what we seek together as neighbors\, and recalls one of the central guiding principles of the City of Santa Monica\, the notion of “wellbeing” as key to civic health. Recovery Justice: Being Well\, aims to highlight the recent circumstances that have evolved during the pandemic (racial justice demonstrations and destruction\, as well as social discontent and general disconnection) into a series of self-organized artist projects that merges the exterior and interior public spaces of City of Santa Monica property. 18th Street Airport Campus at Santa Monica Municipal Airport will be the site where artists reimagine the city and beyond in the midst of complex social unrest globally. Recovery Justice will recuperate through various means the digital and physical footprints left in a city that struggles to reclaim the seemingly peaceful environment it once had. Artists will develop a palette for making and sharing artworks responding to the street experience in safe\, healing and expressive modes. This porous series is a point of departure to reconcile and redefine the concept of justice.  \nWE RISE PROJECTS: THIS MAY\nFor the We Rise series of projects related to Recovery Justice: Being Well\, 18th Street Arts Center will produce a series of artist-led workshops and civic engagement projects addressing mental health for youth and for families in Spanish and English. \nARTS LEARNING LAB @ HOME: CREATIVE SELF-COMPASSION \nThis May\, we are thrilled to present three new Arts Learning Lab @ Home art-making workshops for families all around wellbeing and self-compassion. May is Mental Health Awareness month\, and taking time for creativity together with loved ones is a key part of self-care in these uncertain times. We are partnering with WE RISE LA (https://werise.la/) to bring these moments for creative growth to you\, centered around the theme of wellbeing as we navigate coming out of a pandemic and transitioning to new routines together. \nWe will be providing ALL@HOME Art Kits with materials for each workshop that will be available for pick up from 1639 18th Street\, Santa Monica\, for those that live in the LA Metro area\, but all materials will also be easily found at home or at a local supply store.
