The Beach Museum of Art’s education department recently led one of their outreach programs, ARTFul Making, at the Riley County Seniors’ Service Center. Participants were encouraged to make a collage that represented their idea of a waterscape. The session was inspired by the exhibition Salt Air currently on view at the museum. Offered a variety of materials to use, guests created the beautiful and unique works featured below.
ARTFul Making is a monthly program offered at the senior center as well as Meadowlark and Via Christi. The session at the senior center is held on the third Tuesday of each month from 1:00-2:00p.m. The workshops are free to attend, and all materials are provided. Each month incorporates a different medium and a new source of inspiration. Community members seeking a creative, socially engaging afternoon are encouraged to attend. Sign-ups are appreciated but not required. For more information, please call the Riley County Seniors’ Service Center at (785) 537-4040 or email museum educator Kim Richards for more information kkrichards@ksu.edu.
