Join us for a family-friendly art workshop as part of the Contemporary Kids program, where kids of all ages can explore their creativity and engage with the themes of contemporary art!
Hosted by Makiko Maekawa and Rosa Duffy.
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.
Rosa Duffy is an Atlanta-based artist, and the owner/curator of For Keeps Books.
Open Studios is your chance to meet the artists in our Studio Artist Program and experience their work up close. Explore the studios, connect with creatives, and maybe take home a new favorite piece. All are welcome—artists, students, professionals, and art lovers alike. Ticket sales support subsidized studio spaces, and sponsorships help provide honoraria for exhibiting artists across our campus.
