TCC’s Visual Arts + Design Center 260 Boush Street, Norfolk, VA 23510, Price: This workshop is FREE and pre-registration is required as seats are limited.

When: Saturday, May 2, 10am – 12pm
Where: TCC’s Visual Arts + Design Center, 260 Boush Street, Norfolk, VA 23510
TCC’s Visual Arts + Design Center (VADC) is pleased to host Virginia Commission for the Arts (VCA) Teaching Artist, Rowena Federico Finn for a special workshop opportunity supported by the Arts in Practice Grant Award.
In this FREE workshop, participants will follow along with the instructor to stitch a succulent beaded cactus that will be ready to hang upon completion. Each participant will choose unique beads and sequins to create a dynamic textured masterpiece that hones design and hand-sewing skills. This 2-hour workshop will foster creativity, problem-solving, and a sense of stillness through the meditative practice of hand-stitching. It is also an opportunity for TCC students to explore a new medium not taught in regular studio arts courses at the VADC.
This project was supported, in part, by the Virginia Commission for the Arts, which receives support from the Virginia General Assembly.
All supplies are provided. This workshop is FREE and pre-registration is required as seats are limited. For questions, email Leslie Mounaime lmounaime@tcc.edu.
