2nd Saturday Workshop Series: enCIRCLE with Rachel Dickerson!

Posted on: Mar 21

Join us on April 14th, 1 – 4pm for a fun, messy, and hands-on 2nd Saturday workshop led by Rachel Dickerson of Artspace DC. She’ll be leading a recycled materials printing workshop revolving (get it??) around circular objects. Free, all materials provided, and ALL ages welcome. Grab a friend and come make a beautiful abstract piece for your home!

About the artist: Rachel Dickerson is a printmaker and fiber artist. She is also the director of a community based art program in the Shaw neighborhood called New Community ArtSpace that offers affordable art classes and workshops, studio space, exhibit space and public art projects for artists of all ages.

The annual Rhode Island Ave PorchFest will also be happening from 2 – 6pm, so stick around to explore this awesome community event: “Local porches and stoops are transformed into stages for an afternoon of music, dance, and poetry that brings together neighbors, business owners, and artists in a casual and fun display of creative expression!” More info: http://riamainstreet.org/2018/01/09/porch-fest-2018/

  • Staff Pick 👉Aimee Wanner, Program Coordinator⠀ ⠀ Aimee says this about her choice of Sarah Swan's "Moonlight Meditation":⠀ "I have always loved the quiet serenity of the night time and just being in nature. This painting has a sense of majesty and brings me a sense of peace when I look at it. It takes me back to my favorite places of being: sitting by a babbling brook in the woods, or laying out on a dock and staring up at the stars."⠀ ⠀ Check out Sarah's piece in our upstairs gallery exhibition "Winter Blues."
  • Huge thanks to The Kulas String Quartet–comprised of Oberlin Conservatory students Matt Cone, Natalie Hseih, Jasper de Boor, and Lourdes de la Pena-for performing at our opening this evening!
  • We hope your year to come is filled with all your hopes and dreams. #HappyNewYear from Art Enables!⠀ ⠀ Image: Duane Blacksheare-Staton, "The Moon"
  • WOW! Thanks to a few very generous donors yesterday we are just a few dollars away from hitting $10,000! Thank you Vanessa (aka Santa’s Elf 😁) for doing the honors of coloring in our paintbrush thermometer. We are so close to our $15,000 goal—donate today to help us get there. 💥 www.art-enables.org/donate
  • Without your support, Fellowship Fund artists Eric and Mike, pictured here, may not have the opportunity to work as proud professional artists. Donate today to ensure their dream continues. 💥 www.art-enables.org/donate #artworkshere
  • As an audience, the emotions we feel from artwork can be profound--just as profound as the difference that your support makes in the lives of our resident artists. Give art a chance to change lives, donate today and help us reach our $15,000 year-end goal. ✨ www.art-enables.org/donate
  • We believe that giving our time and effort is one of the best gifts, so we'd like to take a moment to thank all of our volunteers who make our work at Art Enables possible. From the staff, board, and resident artists thank you! #internationalvolunteerday
  • The paintbrush thermometer is back! 🌡👩‍🎨 By Dec. 31 our goal is to raise $15,000 to support the Art Enables Artist Fellowship Fund--a fund that assumes the cost of artmaking for artists who do not otherwise have funding to underwrite their studio fees. Each day we will update the thermometer until we reach our goal! Help us start strong, give today! ✨ www.art-enables.org/donate
