(MAP)

Join current resident artist Daniel Garver to explore color and pattern by creating a paper weaving. Experiment with layering a variety of colored papers and weaving patterns to create a textured composition. Then, discover how to play with geometric shapes in ways that create a bold graphic look.

Before you begin the activity, stop by Daniel’s studio to find inspiration for your weaving!

Note: The activity will take place indoors and is on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.

HANDS-ON HOUSTON is a free drop-in event held the first Saturday of every month. Each month, a teaching artist demonstrates a craft related to the current exhibitions. Families and children of all ages are welcome to come any time between 11 AM and 3 PM and participate in a 15 – 20 minute activity. Materials are provided. This program supports HCCC’s mission to advance education about the process, product, and history of craft. Learn more here.
