NDMOA | FRAME Art Workshop

About this event

FRAME events are structured for those who need special accommodations and adaptive methods for making art. FRAME stands for Flexible Responsive Access for Museum Equity. Through the FRAME initiative, the North Dakota Museum of Art is committed to creating an environment that aligns with and supports a diverse range of needs, abilities and engagement styles.

For this upcoming adaptive art workshop, guests will explore different printmaking techniques using found objects or "everything but the kitchen sink." As a group, we'll create a large-scale figure drawing, then piece together colorful keychains/bag charms!

Each activity will be accompanied by different adaptive practices. This includes step-by-step guides with a final vision example, activities pre-assembled at different stages, plenty of volunteers for one-on-one guidance and a separate calm space/quiet area during the event.

This event is free and open to the public thanks to funding from the City of Grand Forks Arts Re-Grant. You are welcome to drop in or stay the whole time — activities will run continuously. After creations are complete, guests will be able to temporarily display them in our galleries for a small pop-up exhibition and reception.

If you can't make it to this upcoming workshop, don't worry, there'll be more to come! FRAME is a long-term initiative. We have started with individual programs but have goals to expand the initiative to shape how the Museum functions as a whole.

If you're interested in volunteering for this workshop or any future workshops, please contact Rebecca Poulton at rpoulton@ndmoa.com or 701.777.4195
