with Timothy Curtis
Joining Makiko is artist Timothy Curtis, whose artwork is currently on view in Inkblots and Feelings Charts. Timothy’s art underscores the pervasive influence of emotions and
feelings that guide us through our days and shape our interactions. Timothy will guide the group in making their own inkblots and feelings charts.
This is a drop-in event. Doors open at 12pm and visitors may begin the project any time until 2pm. Most visitors complete their artwork in 30-45 minutes and are invited to view the exhibitions before they leave. Contemporary Kids is open to all ages. Register online here.
Parking is free in the lot at Bankhead & Means Street (Google Maps Location). You can access the lot via Bankhead Avenue and proceed past the parking attendant booth.
Makiko believes kids have magical power in creativity and imagination. She is originally from Japan and studied photography in Baltimore, MD. As a child she learned that art is universal language that allows kids express their power. She currently lives in Atlanta and creates art in mixed media including photographic images.
