Yearbook, etc! (Sieglinde)

In this yearlong Yearbook Class, students will edit, design, create, and print a 24-25 PSCS Yearbook. The theme will be decided as a team, likely through community process, and applying it to a really cool archive of the year.

Together we’ll plan the layout, timeline, and create a draft in Canva (easy to share, easy to organize, on the cheap). Folks who join will have the opportunity to write copy, take and organize pictures, and create pages/spreads that capture our community and activities. The final result will be printed and shared with the community in June.

  • Outside work: A small amount (e.g., <30 min) for each session

2 Dimensional Art (Amy)

   

Come create 2 dimensional art in a laid back atmosphere!  Over the course of the term, we will learn how to make tessellations AND mandala-like drawings that incorporate radial symmetry.  

These types of art forms lend themselves to being meditative and calming.  Be a part of art-making, chilling, music listening, and an overall nice time.  

  • Outside work: No outside work
  • Minimum students: 2

Weaving (Amy)

Whether you are brand new to weaving, or you already know the basics, this class is for you!  Students will learn and experience each step in the weaving process.  Ultimately, each student will create their own piece of woven fabric – a towel, a scarf, something else?

Students who are brand-new to weaving will learn how to do plain weave as a way of getting the basic skills under their belt.  Students who took weaving last year will learn more complex weaving techniques, how to read a weaving draft, and more about various yarns and their qualities.

This class will be limited in size based on the number of looms we have.  Experienced weavers will work on their own looms, and new weavers will work together on shared looms.  

***PLEASE connect with Amy if you want to be in this class.  She wants to make it work for as many students as possible!
