SUMMARY:Summer Camp at the Stevie | Block-Printing & Infinite Patterns by Hand
DESCRIPTION:Reconnect with your creativity through Summer Camp at the Stevie\, a five-part workshop series that invites adults (age 16+) to experience art making through the senses. Set in the Wende Museum’s Stevie Artist Residence garden oasis\, each Sunday workshop explores one of the five senses through a different creative practice\, from watercolor painting and basket weaving to ceramics\, botanical incense making\, and traditional food preservation. \nInspired by the spirit of summer camp\, the series encourages participants to slow down\, notice the world around them\, and engage with natural materials in meaningful ways. Together\, we’ll observe the colors of the landscape\, listen through handmade instruments\, weave with plant fibers\, create fragrances from botanicals\, and preserve seasonal ingredients\, discovering how creativity can deepen our relationship to the environment and one another. \nDesigned for artists and beginners alike\, Summer Camp at the Stevie celebrates making by hand as a pathway to mindfulness\, curiosity\, and community. Whether you attend a single workshop or join us for the full series\, you’ll leave with new skills\, meaningful connections\, and a renewed appreciation for the beauty found in the natural world. \nWhat is the Stevie? \nTucked away on the southwestern side of the Wende Museum’s Community Center\, the Stevie is a “tiny house” turned creative outpost. Surrounded by palms and desert landscaping\, it serves as both an artist residency space and an intimate venue for programs\, gatherings\, and experimental events on its expansive outdoor deck. The Stevie was made possible by a transformative contribution from Steve and Jadwiga Markoff. \nWorkshop Description: TOUCH | Block-Printing & Infinite Patterns by Hand with Alejandro Figueredo Diaz-Perera \nDiscover how a single block-printed shape can produce countless different compositions simply by changing its orientation. Using a collection of original modular patterns designed by the artist\, participants will explore the surprising beauty of relief printing on fabric. As simple carved blocks are repeated and rotated\, endlessly evolving designs begin to emerge. The workshop invites participants to experience the pleasure of making by hand through carving\, inking\, and printing\, and the wonder of watching intricate patterns gradually emerge from the simplest of forms. Participants will carve their own printing block and hand-print a cotton bandana to take home. No previous experience is necessary\, materials will be provided. \nArtist Bio \nAlejandro Figueredo Diaz-Perera is a Cuban-American artist and educator based in Los Angeles. His interdisciplinary practice spans painting\, printmaking\, installation\, and performance\, exploring perception\, memory\, and the ways images shape our understanding of the world. He is the founder of Studios Colibrí\, an artist-run studio in Baldwin Hills dedicated to art education\, workshops\, and creative experimentation\, where he encourages participants to rediscover the pleasure of making by hand.
