SUMMARY:BASE: Create & Sip - Make a Wreath with Julia Kemerer
DESCRIPTION:BASE: Create & Sip – Make a Wreath with Julia Kemerer\n\n\n\nCreate & Sip is a monthly workshop hosted at Brushwood Center 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. \n\n\n\nThis month’s class will be led by November’s Artist of the Month\, our own Julia Kemerer\, who will teach us to make festive wreathes that will include a mix of new materials alongside the repurposed and reimagined. Everyone’s project will be unique\, and creativity is highly encouraged. We will have a variety of objects available to use for your wreath\, 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! \n\n\n\nAs you craft away\, enjoy the company of fellow art enthusiasts in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere while listening to a craft-themed musical soundtrack. Feel free to bring your favorite beverage (alcohol is allowed for those 21 and up) and some snacks to enjoy as you immerse yourself in the creative process.At the end of the class\, you’ll leave with your own handmade wreath. Plus\, you’ll take home newfound skills and inspiration to continue your crafting journey beyond the class. \n\n\n\nYou can also see Julia’s  Brushwood Center Gallery from October 25 – November 29. \n\n\n\nWe’ll have a variety of supplies and tools available. Everyone’s project will be unique. No experience necessary\, all skill levels are welcome. \n\n\n\nAbout the Artist: \n\n\n\nJulia Kemerer is a mixed media artist and an avid maker of all things. She paints and sculpts with paper\, found objects\, fabric\, wood\, and clay\, and has a passion for creative reuse\, or what she refers to as “using what you have to make what you need.” Julia’s creations will often make appearances at Brushwood Center\, where she has been the Art Director for over a decade. At Brushwood\, she curates shows and art markets\, runs BASE\, and teaches classes in addition to working behind the scenes on several area public arts projects.
