Make Art, Not Trash
Michelle Stitzlein makes sculpture and other art out of recycled objects. Recycled art probably won't save the world, but it's a great reminder that castoff materials can be reused and repurposed! And isn't hers cheerful? Michelle is the same artist who has been featured on Artzine all month, too.Michelle will be leading a family workshop at the Franklin Park Conservatory July 14 where you and your kid can make a Chillin Flower Magnet. The workshop is free with admission.
And if you grow to love making art from recycled objects, for a few bucks you can become a member of the Waste Not Center and access loads of free raw material. Or, on the supply side, if you have art or office materials to donate, give the center a call at (614) 278-9445.
