Description:
Creating Between Us
A reflection and discussion of rich experiences and adventures as an artist in sharing, designing for, and learning from art making with others. Like many artists, Coe’s career has balanced her solitary practice in the studio with engaging others in the art making process, collaborative projects, teaching and programs in arts and non-art endeavors. She’ll discuss pivotal experiences, share innovative prototypes that may resonate with others in these pandemic times, highlight unexpected discoveries—and the inspiration and impact engaging with others has had on her own art.

Free and open to the public. Registration required for in person attendance - limited to 36 guests.
Lecture will be recorded and shared on MartinArts website and YouTube channel.
