Join Elisabeth Belliveau for this Schmoozy exclusive Mobile-Making workshop, Tuesday, November 26, 6-9pm! 

Compose in space with forms and shapes.

Gentle sculpture, stories in motion, arms reach, freely in the air.
A brief overview of the kinetic practice of mobiles will be shared, highlighting artists who work with suspended sculpture in motion.
A hands-on demo on constructing armatures and balancing your own mobile will follow.

Tools and materials will be provided; everyone is encouraged to bring both 2D and 3D found objects, odd bits, and studio scraps.
