Join Us For Art Teacher Collective #2!

Hello fellow art educators!

 

A few months ago Bishop Pinkham School hosted the first Art Teacher Collective. The Art Teacher Collective is an opportunity for art teachers and advocates to get together to collaborate, brainstorm and make connections, all while working on their own artistic passions and pursuits!  

 

Well Art Teacher Collective #2 is ready and this time we will meet with a guest artist to learn from her!

 

Bishop Pinkham School is welcoming artist Susan Kristoferson into our school for the next four weeks as an Artist in Residence. Susan will be working on printmaking techniques with the BP art students and has offered to extend her expertise to teachers! Susan will be offering an after school artistic professional development opportunity to any interested teachers!

 

Who: Teachers! All are welcome and no artistic experience required! We have the space for 30-40 people. 

 

What: A Printmaking workshop. The session will be tailored to your interest. When you respond, let us know if you are looking for techniques to bring back to your classroom, or just want to join us for fun and your own personal artistic developement! There will be a fee, depending on how many people join us, around $10.00-$15.00 to cover costs, supplies and some snacks!. 

 

Where: Bishop Pinkham School art room (3304 63 Ave SW).

 

When: Tuesday, June 2nd, 3:30pm-5:00pm

Artist living estate sale ...

This July 3rd through 6th, artist Larissa McLean is holding a huge 'living estate' sale in order to raise funds for her new AQUILA Print Studio in High River, opening this August. Proceeds from the sale will help the High River community via art therapy at the studio, and pave the way for artist residencies there in the future to let others hone their printmaking skills in Southern Alberta.

Much of Larissa's personal art collection, featuring pieces collected from around the world, is up for sale -- well over 300 pieces, ranging from prints to etchings to paintings. As well, Larissa's own works will be for sale, and works from recently-deceased Calgary/Turner Valley artist Will Magee.

As well, funky clothing, antiques and even some of her husband Russ' music gear (synths and more!) and vintage 80's computer equipment will be on the block.

July 3rd 12pm-7pm
July 4th 10am-5pm
