Join me for #JCFridays this Friday June 5th for a Join me for #JCFridays this Friday June 5th for a I Am My Hair Studio Visit. I make art in community, under lock down, I have been working alone. Have a glass of wine with me while previewing several 3D soft fiber sculpture works in progress. Learn to wrap and hitch knot yarn, ribbon, sequins and beads onto rope. I will demonstrate how to knot by hand. The process is a vibe; meditative and relaxing. Join in. Virtual Access JC Fridays will take place on Friday, June 5 at 7pm EST on Zoom! All participating partner venues will come together in one online arts festival showcasing all that Jersey City has to offer. This event will have ASL Interpretation and Closed Captions.
