Class Description

This class will focus on creating three-dimensional projects through process art and exploration. Students will be introduced to the ways that three-dimensional design can be found in the real world, along with a brief explanation of architectural structures. Each week, students will be given a set of open-ended materials, a sturdy platform,
and time to explore and construct. Students can bring their structure home, or they may choose to leave it in the studio to revisit the following week. Sample prompts could include: "create something tall", "create something you’d like to live in", or "create a building of the future."
