Join NUMU this November for DIY drawstring pouches! Plan and cut the fabric. Then, learn how to create a running stitch to turn it into a sachet. This nifty craft brings together stitchery and utility. Use your pouch as a coin purse, dice bag, or gift bag. Afterwards, see the work of other fiber artists in NUMU’s newest exhibition, Stitches & Wiggles: Unraveled and Reimagined Mixed Media Art by Jody Alexander and Thomas Campbell, and learn how the two artists bring together their methods through patchwork.
Materials for this activity will be available during regular hours.
New Museum Los Gatos (NUMU) is excited to partner with LGS Recreation to deliver this week-long camp for young artists to create a unique artwork that captures their perspective on the history and charm of Los Gatos. Participants will learn art techniques, explore the museum’s art & history exhibitions, walk the Los Gatos Creek trail, learn about local flora and fauna, visit local Los Gatos historic landmarks, and even meet some key town officials. Each day we’ll focus on a new topic and by the end of the week students will have completed a one-of-a-kind painting reflecting the theme “Capturing Life in Los Gatos.” The camp concludes with a mini-art show where campers proudly display their work for family and friends. This is a highly engaging interactive art and history experience that you don’t want to miss.
