Date: March 10, 7 PM – 9 PM
Guest Speaker: Kimberlea Bass, Multidisciplinary Artist, Educator, Photographer and World Traveler
Title: Generation Gap
Kimberlea Bass will be speaking about her journey as an artist, and navigating how to use art as a way of healing and expressing big emotions in a healthy way. She challenges the boundaries of photography as a concept rather than a tool. As a group we will all use our hands and test out some of Bass techniques with materials that will be provided. We will be exploring how photography and photographic materials can help guide this practice.
