Upcycled Make-and-Take Crafts with The Junk Lady
Description
I provide fun, funky, creative, and environmentally friendly art experiences for participants of all ages. I am a teaching artist and I call myself “The Junk Lady” and my theme of “Transforming Junk into Treasure” involves using found and discarded materials for “Make-and-Take” workshops where participants create unique crafts that they can take home with them. I provide and prepare all of the necessary materials and I can work with you to design a project that works best with your patrons. I have over 15 years of experience and have presented my workshops at over 50 libraries in Arizona. I have an Arizona Fingerprint Clearance Card and hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and a Master’s Degree in Education.
Program fee: $150-$200 depending on project. For information about multiple show discount contact artist.
