Arty Facts: Visiting Artist Isabelle Garbani 4/17 at the Brooklyn Museum. 11am & 1:30PM.

Join us for a special Arty Facts on 4/17 at 11am or at 1:30pm.  As part of our special Arty Facts series with Brooklyn artists, mixed media artist Isabelle Garbani shares the ways in which site, location, and community inspire her colorful public art made from crocheted plastic shopping bags. Come create artwork inspired by the places that are meaningful to you.

Each Sunday's program is a variation on the monthly theme. The theme for April is "Places and Spaces". Come and learn how artists get their inspiration and create a work of your own.

There is a Materials Fee of $10 (for up to four participants), $5 for Gallery/Studio families and Museum members at the Family level and free to Members at the Friends level and above.
