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 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.

Code ZFK4201-26
Join for a single day or the whole week! Bugs and Birds: Life Below and Above! From the tiniest beetle tunneling underground to the highest hawk circling overhead, this week takes young artists on a journey through every layer of life on Earth. We start low, sculpting clay bugs and building tiny dioramas of the hidden world beneath the rug, in the dirt, and under fallen logs. Then we climb upward, painting layered skyscapes and crafting birds, bats, and bugs that take to the air. Along the way, we study real creatures- their shapes, colors, and camouflage - and use them as inspiration for our own imaginative critters. By the end of the week, we’ve built a whole ecosystem of artwork from the ground up to the clouds! REGISTRATION: If you are interested in registering for single days, please reach out to our Registration Department at [email protected] or call 970-924-5089.
