Go Green: Creativity in Nature
Aug 1 - 5, 2022
9AM-3PM
Concept
Gardens are full of animals, insects, flowers and, of course, food. In this nature-inspired workshop, students work together to create clay garden totems, batik fabric with animal prints, birdhouses to support their little critters and papier-mâché vegetable baskets. Students also take nature walks around the Ranch campus and observe and learn about the importance of green-garden creatures.
Faculty
Anjuli DiMaria
Anjuli’s background includes post baccalaureate work in Studio Ceramics under Richard Hirsch and Julia Galloway after receiving a BA in Ceramics and Philosophy at Houghton College. Anjuli moved to Snowmass Village to participate in a ceramics residency at ARAC in 2004. Since then, Anjuli has worked in galleries, the Aspen School District, and as an adjunct faculty at CMC-Aspen. Anjuli is lucky enough to be raising her three children with her husband here in Snowmass Village.

NEW: Tuition includes a welcome dinner and lunches.

The Ranch Café Meal Plan, which is included with Room and Board fees, strives to provide healthy, creative meals that will nourish your artistic creativity. Learn more.
We have established a Business Safety Plan with added layers of precaution that prioritize the health and safety of our staff, students, faculty and guests while continuing to provide you with the Anderson Ranch experience that you know and enjoy.

Join for a single day or the whole week! Whiz, Whoosh, Zoom! Art in Action. Get ready to move, make, and imagine! In this high-energy workshop, we explore the exciting world of motion through art. From flowing rivers and twisting roads to flying machines and spinning surprises, each day brings a new adventure. We’ll sculpt clay boats, build tunnels, fly hand-crafted kites, and create mesmerizing zoetropes. Using Ozobots, topographic maps, recycled treasures, and vibrant paints, we’ll invent whimsical machines and kinetic creations. Through sculpture, collage, and playful invention, we’ll turn movement into magic. At the end of the week, we’ll celebrate with a special gallery show featuring all our action-packed artworks!
