Initiatives
Public Arts ProgramsBASE: Create & Sip – Upcycled Wreaths
Create & Sip is a monthly workshop where participants can explore fun projects using supplies and tools from the Brushwood Art Supply Exchange, BASE. It’s an opportunity to get creative, try something new, and enjoy the company of fellow art enthusiasts in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
While Brushwood Center at Ryerson Woods is closed for renovations (June – November, 2026), Create & Sip will be held at The Art Center Highland Park.
Everyone’s project will be unique, and creativity is highly encouraged. We will have a variety of materials available to use for your project, but if you have something of your own you would like to bring and try to incorporate into your artwork, you are welcome to bring it!
No experience necessary, all skill levels are welcome.
What to Bring:
- Your favorite beverage (alcohol is allowed for those 21 +)
- Some snacks to enjoy as you immerse yourself in the creative process
- Your friends (make sure they register!)
- Any extra supplies you want to incorporate into your project (Optional! We have lots of supplies!)
