Description
Join us for an extraordinary day that melds artistry and music through the lens of inspiration. Kicking off our event will be a gallery discussion focusing on the captivating works of Charles White, particularly his piece "Juba," alongside other art that draws heavily from musical themes. This conversation will set the perfect tone as we delve into the powerful intersection of visual art and sound, encouraging participants to think deeply about how music influences creativity.
Following this enlightening discussion, participants will roll up their sleeves in a mixed media workshop led by the talented Eric Echols. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to craft their own mixed media piece, drawing inspiration from an album that resonates with them personally. This hands-on experience not only fosters creativity but also equips educators with a tailored lesson plan to integrate into their classrooms, ensuring that the magic of the day reverberates long after it's over.
To cap off the afternoon, don't miss the chance to stay and soak in the lively atmosphere during our live music session in the Rotunda. This vibrant setting will provide a perfect backdrop for networking and relaxation, where educators can unwind and further explore the harmonious blend of art and music. Join us for an unforgettable experience that promises to inspire creativity and foster community among educators!
