TEEN ART NIGHT: Gesso Transfers

SVMoA Hailey Classroom

Join us for Teen Art Night, a free art-making program for teens, where we’ll build on the creative techniques from last month’s Alternative Photography Processes to explore the themes of mapping, movement, and identity in connection with the Uncharted: Artists as Wayfinders exhibition. This month, we’ll be continuing our exploration of alternative photography processes, focusing specifically on Gesso transfers. Be prepared to get hands-on with this tactile image-making technique, which allows you to lift and layer photographic imagery in a whole new way. Please send digital photos or other imagery you'd like to include in your transfer to Dianne at dsanchez.shumway@svmoa.org by Thursday, May 8th to make sure they’re printed and ready for you. No experience is necessary, and all materials will be provided. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced artist, this two-hour session is a fun and supportive space for teens ages 12–18 to experiment and express themselves. SVMoA Staff and Teen Interns will be there to guide you through the creative process and help you connect your work to the exhibition’s themes of exploration and self-discovery.

Connect with peers, explore the transformative power of arts integration, and inspire student success through creativity and self-expression. Teachers across all grade levels and disciplines in southern Idaho are invited for two days of conversation and learning with art scholars and colleagues. The summit will feature presentations from experts in the field, hands-on workshops, and ready-to-use lesson plans, offering practical tools for immediate implementation. Building on SVMoA’s history of supporting arts education, this summit will explore research-backed strategies for connecting visual art to subjects like math, science, social studies, and language arts.
