Continuing the exploration of folk art, the creative learning programming at Headwaters Arts Center this fall includes Welcome Blanket Quilting with Megan Avery for the Welcome Blanket project; Spoon Carving with Michael McCarthy; and the return of Rug Hooking with Annie Hayes. These workshops are an excellent opportunity for community members to engage creatively with folk art, helping these art forms continue to thrive.
Whether skills are self-taught or shared from hand to hand, folk art is what we make with the materials we have that serves a creative function, expression, or even whim. The artworks in this exhibition exemplify the creativity inherent in the human experience and remind us that art is for everybody.
