Vitality Arts: Free Your Creative Spirit

In this five-week class, you’ll get to know the artwork and teachings of artist Sister Corita Kent using her book Learning by Heart as a road map. You’ll start by making sketchbooks and filling them with your observations of daily life. Using collage, drawing, bookbinding, and printmaking, you’ll explore various methods for noticing and being inspired by the world around you.

You’ll leave with a sketchbook full of drawings and observations, hand-carved stamps, prints, and more. Plus you’ll gain an appreciation for Corita’s enduring thesis: that creativity belongs to the artist in each of us.
