Exhibitions, open studio's, receptions, performances, hands on participation- an amazing event for all ages. My highlight was meeting multi-medium artist Paula Trimm. I loved her passion and her belief that "Art is all about the process and not the final product". She wastes nothing and everything can be recycled back into her art. She had a wall of canvas where you could "mark make" on. I am going to put one up in my classroom where the students can use their left over paint on it instead of throwing it away or washing it down the drain.( yes they do this!) After the canvas is full, I will give them a piece of it to incorporate back into another piece of art. Sounds ambitious but I think it will work! Stay tuned!
