COMMUNITY WORKSHOP: Native Plant Monotypes
SVMoA Hailey ClassroomThe stems, leaves, and flowers of plants are essential to their functions: making their own food and providing it to other living things, building healthy soil, cleaning and filtering water, and providing shade. They also create beautiful shapes, lines, and patterns. Participants will apply ink to native plants gathered from the Sawtooth NRA, lay paper over the plants, and use pressure to make beautiful botanical monotype prints. All materials are provided but participants are welcome to bring their own native plants. Age & ability: all ages and levels; beginners welcome! This workshop takes place from 2–4pm at the Museum in Ketchum About the Instructor Rebecca Schultz is the 2024 Sawtooth National Recreation Area Artist-in-Residence. Schultz creates mixed media works–including paintings, prints, installations, and public art–that cultivate a sense of wonder for the complex ecosystems surrounding us and reflect on humanity’s precarious relationship with the more-than-human world.
