Create new works of art using found objects and wire! We'll use our hands and tools to bend, shape, and attach. As you create your sculpture, you'll choose from lots of discarded items like old jewelry, electronics, metals, plastics, stones, beads, cloth, wood and more.

  • This is an On-site course. Students must follow social distancing protocols and wear masks at all times. For more info visit visarts.org.
