SUMMARY:Embroidery Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Artist-in-Residence Laurie Shapiro for a fun and easy embroidery workshop suitable for kids and adults. In this session\, we’ll be creating embroidered designs of your choice. While materials are provided\, feel free to bring your own\, such as a jacket or shirt\, and come with an idea of what you’d like to embroider\, whether it’s a printout or a personal drawing. We look forward to seeing your creativity! \n\n\n\nBIOGRAPHY \n\n\n\nLaurie Shapiro (b.1990) creates immersive dreamscapes based on interconnectivity and oneness with nature. Being hard-of-hearing\, her experience of the outer world is often muted\, while her inner world is amplified. These internal emotional experiences manifest as vibrant and captivating visuals\, enveloping viewers in a realm of color and wonder. Paintings are particularly expressive\, with subjects often using exaggerated gestures to communicate. “I primarily understand the world through visual stimuli and internal feelings\, and this\, in turn\, colors all of my work\,” she adds. Central to her artistic practice are screen-printed floral patterns and imagery—drawings of plants that “speak” to her. \n\n\n\nHer art has been commissioned and shown at various institutions\, including the Dyer Arts Center\, San Diego Museum of Art\, and San Luis Obispo Museum of Art. Over the past decade\, Shapiro has regularly exhibited solo and group exhibitions with galleries and museums across the country and is the recipient of multiple grants.  She has completed artist residencies at the American Academy in Rome\, the Kala Art Institute in Berkeley\, and the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles.  Shapiro received her BFA from Carnegie Mellon University and studied abroad at Bilkent University. \n\n\n\nLaurie is offering another workshop: Introduction to Screen Printing\, on September 28 \n\n\n\nAlso\, be sure to attend her installation\, Meditated Landscape\, as part of the Boise Open Studios Tour October 12th & 13th from 10am-6pm. \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Laurie Shapiro: Meditated Landscape

SUMMARY:OPENING RECEPTION: Tenacious Collage | DREWCO
DESCRIPTION:FLASH EXHIBITION  \n\n\n\nUtilizing the best in synthetic adhesive technology\, Tenacious Collage is a bold collection of two dimensional sculpture. Each piece is painstakingly created from layers of woven material\, cut and carved into dynamic\, colorful pieces. From the makers of the wildly popular Paint-O-Matic 2000\, Tenacious Collage blends an urban vibe with a well crafted modern look. \n\n\n\nDREWCO addresses the absurdities as Andrew Groth navigates the liminal spaces\, yet resists the temptation to take anything too seriously. He is an artist\, musician\, avid cyclist\, animal fan\, and child of the 80s who enjoys poking fun at things\, at life\, at art\, at his art\, and especially at himself. He earned an AA in Liberal Arts and a BFA degree with an Emphasis on Painting. His work has been shown in several group exhibitions.  He is one of the most recent members of Boise Open Studios and he continues to be an active member in the Treasure Valley arts community. \n\n\n\nFree
