This workshop is offered in conjunction with the exhibition Merryll Saylan: This is Your Life; a timeline of her work. Saylan is known for her pioneering use of color and Adler will walk you through various coloration options such as milk paint\, iron paint\, and dyes. Participants will each make a group of swatches that they will take away for their next project. \nAlan Adler first became interested in design when he studied for his MFA at Pratt Institute in New York. Adler took up woodturning in 2009 and has since received awards at regional competitions and international recognition from peers in “The World of Wood Turners.” Adler is also the founder of Source Packaging and Cases by Source\, producing custom packaging for industry clientele. \n From Alan: “For many years I was searching for a material and process to reconnect with my design roots and personal creative expression.  Always drawn to wood and furniture building\, I discovered turning. Nothing measures up to the excitement and discovery of peeling away layers of wood and exposing hidden treasures in grain\, texture\, and color. \nI have been fortunate to have met\, studied and received advice and encouragement from many of the leading artists in this medium. This has inspired me to experiment beyond my comfort zone with color\, carving\, and techniques borrowed from other art forms. \nMajor influences in my work come from studying art history and twentieth-century masters. Observing simple and elegant forms\, textures and patterns and viewing nature have inspired organic relevance that can all be seen throughout my work.” \nThe Center for Art in Wood is a non-profit arts organization located in Philadelphia who nurtures and promotes the innovation of art in wood through collaborative residencies\, exhibitions\, education\, and documentation.  The Center also maintains an inspirational collection and a research library to enhance the understanding and appreciation of the art. \nCancelation Policy\nCancelations of a workshop must be made by email.  The Center can offer a full refund if notice is given 15 days prior to the workshop.

All of the neuroses explored in contemporary sculpture are also hidden under the upholstery of furniture. This hypothesis comes from two observations; the body’s many perceived insecurities AND the neurotic need of the objects we presently call furniture. \nIn this workshop\, participants will be asked to find a wrecked or dysfunctional piece of furniture from the garbage or from home. In the course of the workshop\, each participant will “RESTORE” their object…pulling it through time toward a present pertinence. \n\nSaturday\, March 30\, 2019 | 2 – 4pm\nCommunity Gallery Talk\nThe Center for Art in Wood\n141 N. 3rd Street\, Philadelphia\, PA 19106\nFREE \nUnlocked? \nFocusing on the push/pull of the previous days’ workshops\, participants and the public at large are invited to gather at The Center for Art in Wood for a closing pop-up display of the works and ideas generated in the workshops.

June 18\, 2022 \nSat.

During this two-day workshop\, participants will combine steam bending and basket weaving to create sculptures and functional objects that embody each discipline’s organic and material characteristics. \nIn the first session\, we will cover the principles of steam bending. Participants will learn to create their own simple steam bending jigs to make unique and dynamic bends in wood. In the second session\, participants will learn the fundamentals of basket weaving\, then learn how to apply these to their steam-bent structures\, giving volume and form to their wooden lines. \nABOUT GLEN FOERD\nGlen Foerd\, listed on the National Register of Historic Places\, is located on 18 acres at the confluence of the Poquessing Creek and Delaware River.

We will post the rescheduled date shortly. Please check back soon. \nJoin us for an evening of creativity\, healing\, and writing with The Body as a Garden workshop led by Enoch the Poet. Enoch’s workshops conceptualize the body as various environments in order to identify and deepen our understanding of self\, our connection to our body\, and the information they are trying to communicate with us daily. The Body as Garden challenges participants to ponder the thoughts\, patterns\, emotions\, and habits that have been nurtured in our body’s garden. \nPortrait of Enoch the Poet \nEnoch is a poet\, author\, trauma-informed teaching artist\, and creator and writer for the manga series Immortal Dark. He was born and raised in the Northside of Wilmington\, DE. As a mental health advocate and someone living with bi-polar disorder\, his work examines the process of healing and the ways that trauma and mental health move through a family\, as well as the outside forces that affect or have affected these developments. His goal is to create written works\, curricula\, and platforms that deepen our emotional understanding and its cyclical relation to the conditions acting on the Black mind\, body\, and spirit. Enoch is the 2017 Philadelphia Fuze Grand Slam Champion and the author of two poetry collections\, The Guide to Drowning\, released in 2017\, and Burned at the Roots\, released in 2020. \nEnoch operates as the Executive Publisher and Founder of Black Minds Publishing\, LLC\, a national publications platform centered around the personal and professional growth of artists and creatives of the Black diaspora. \nThe Museum for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it.  \nQuestions?
