Photographs by Carolina Araneda
- Wednesday, October 5, 2016
- 6:30pm – 9:30pm
- MAWA, 611 Main Street
Photographer Carolina Araneda will lead this exploration of photography, light and intentional camera movement. There is freedom beyond the “decisive moment” and “perfect light”, if one is prepared to follow where the camera leads. Please bring a camera that allows control over shutter speed settings. Remember the group will be starting the One-a-Day art work series this month, to be shown at next month's meeting. Sandra Brown’s workshop, originally scheduled for this date, will take place on Jan. 11, 2017.
About the Artist Mothers at MAWA group:
The acts and demands of child-rearing are exhausting and challenging. While caregiving, it can feel like we are not taken seriously as artists. Some women give up artmaking completely. Others refuse to choose, knowing that artmaking is an oxygen mask one must put on before assisting little ones.
The Artist Mothers Group at MAWA extends an invitation to all artist mothers to come and meet other women who embrace both mothering and artistic production. This peer-based group usually meets on the first Wednesday of each month. Meetings are relaxed and informal. The group experiments with art materials, critiques each other’s work, and shares snacks, concerns, ideas, inspiration, strategies and support for those who juggle the tricky life of artmaking and mothering.
If you can’t make the meetings, please consider participating in the “Artist Mothers at MAWA” Facebook page.
Free! Open to all Artist Mothers
