Join a collaborative figure modeling project, building life-scale clay figures outdoors at Edgewood Farm for an extended public installation. Learn how to model life-scale clay figures, applying lessons in human anatomy, proportion, form making and clay modeling. We will begin placing the armatures in the landscape and model them on site in clay. 

No experience is necessary - only interest and enthusiasm!

This class will meet at Edgewood Farm, 3 Edgewood Way. All tools and materials will be supplied, please be prepared for working outside (hats, sunscreen, bug repellent etc.)
