Friendly Felt Fruit: Pop Art Soft Sculpture
Sunday, January 26, 2025, 1-3 p.m.
Palm Court Arts Complex
Craft your own soft sculpture of a friendly felt fruit! Investigate the structural properties of fabric and the aesthetics of produce while entering the wonderful world of sculpture—without stone and chisel. Popularized through the 1960’s Pop Art scene, soft sculpture uses techniques such as gluing, weaving, stuffing, or even draping to sculpt soft or pliant materials, like cloth and fiber, into three-dimensional artwork. Materials will be provided, although participants are encouraged to bring clean scrap fabric to upcycle into art! Appropriate for all skill levels and all-abilities friendly.
