This Saturday: A Workshop on Chance
ArtStarts encourages participants to be brave and try things, even when they believe they won’t work out. Mistakes lead us to be creative problem solvers! As Bob Ross liked to say: “There are no mistakes, only happy accidents.” Taking a chance gives us the opportunity to discover something we never would have. Come roll the dice with us and explore chance in art making this Saturday.
