PAST DATE AND TIME:
- Tuesday, Aug 6, 2024 6pm - 8pm
Join RiNo Art District, Two Bee Industries, and the Denver Public Library! This July and August we'll be getting outside to make a host of unconventional and totally cool interactive objects together, from graffiti lettering and embroidery to crafting frankencreatures by cutting up old creatures and sewing them back together. Workshops are free with all supplies and dinner included! Kids, teens, and their adult friends are all encouraged to participate with individual and group projects. Pets welcome!
August 6: Tattoos and Stickers
With a 5,000 year old history, tattoos are one of the oldest artforms, making our bodies a portable canvass. Our temporary DIY creations allow us to have a fun and pain free chance to play in the medium. We'll also be designing stickers using paper and packing tape, talking about the history of sticker design and how it has played a huge part in the evolution of graffiti and street art.
