Bronx River Art Center (BRAC) - FREE Art Class for Ages 15-23 | Teen Project Studio Begins Monday

 

Teen Project Studio +2.0 CREATING SUSTAINABLE DESIGNS Mondays and Thursdays from 4 - 6 pm Classes begin on January 30th Applications Open!

Art, design, and architecture have the power to change or breathe new life into peoples' appreciation of their surroundings. Our perspectives, behaviors, movement in space, and interactions with each other are determined by art, design, and the pursuit of beauty. The theme for this edition of Teen Project Studio, TPS +2.0 will explore ideas about Design and Peace under the guidance of artist Kayla Weisdorf. Selected participants will acquire skills in 2D and 3D design: learning about 1- and 2-point perspective, creating three dimensional shapes from paper using origami techniques, and configuring them into assorted structures to experiment with relevant software. Participants will examine case studies in various solutions-oriented projects developed and implemented by artists and designers in the past. Students will also address issues that are important to them and affect them on a day-to-day basis in order to narrow down areas of collective interest. TPS +2.0 will explore the neighborhood of West Farms in the Bronx to identify areas that could potentially benefit from a design intervention, with the goal of making a piece to contribute to a designated public space. Teen Project Studio +2.0 is FREE by APPLICATION.
