Description

Come tinker around with us! Maker camp places an importance on the balance between exploration and execution. Often, projects start small, and then grow through tinkering, fiddling, and group communication. In this camp we will learn through experimentation and sometimes even failure that it can take few tries to get something right, and that true learning comes from the process itself. 

About the Teaching Artists: 

Katie Truk received her BFA from Alfred University. She has been teaching multi-media classes to children and adults of all ages and levels since 2001 through personal lessons, visiting artist grants, and in places such as Creative Hands in Madison, Let’s Create in Boonton, Messy Artist in South Orange and the Summit Art Center. In her studio, the medium of choice is pantyhose. She combines the translucent and sensual nature of pantyhose and the rigidity of wire to create sculptures of complex depth and personality. These sculptures have been featured around the tri-state area.
