Discover the Workshop

Take art to the next level and actually become a piece of art in this workshop where students create fantastical masks and costumes out of a variety of mixed media. Papier-mâché, fuzzy and patterned fabric, and even plain old cardboard are used to spur inspiration and creativity. Finally, students work their wearable art on the runway in a dazzling presentation to friends and family at the end of the week.

This workshop is taught by a bilingual art educator who will support our English and Spanish speaking participants through the use of both languages during instruction. 

El taller será dado por un profesor de artes profesional que apoyará tanto a nuestros participantes hispanoparlantes como a los que hablan inglés haciendo uso de ambos lenguajes durante la clase.

El mundo del arte que se puede llevar puesto

Lleva el arte al siguiente nivel y conviértete en una obra de arte en este taller en el que los estudiantes crearán máscaras y disfraces fantásticos con una variedad de medios mixtos. Se utilizarán papel maché, telas difusas y estampadas e incluso cartón viejo; para estimular la inspiración y la creatividad. Por último, al final de la semana los alumnos pondrán en escena su arte que se puede llevar puesto en una deslumbrante presentación ante sus amigos y familiares.

Meet Your Faculty

Lilian Lara

Lilian Lara is a mixed-media artist focusing on papier-mâché sculptures and costume design. Her love of outrageous pageantry and interest in the fantastical is evident in her work as she draws on her Mexican roots to create unique pieces. She believes art is an essential component to the human condition and should occupy a major space in our daily lives. To create is to communicate without words and boundaries—to be understood without explanation.
