Description
The Community School of the Arts (CSA) at Wheaton College offers a visual arts workshop teaching Peruvian Gourdament art. Creating art from gourds is one of the oldest art forms in Peru, handed down from the early Inca Indians. Saturday's workshop allows participants to create Peruvian Gourdaments using traditional animal or geometric patterns, paints and woodburning tools.
CSA Visual Arts faculty member Jennifer Nagle will lead the workshop. On staff since 2001, Nagle serves as the coordinator of CSA's Visual Arts program. She also owns and operates a custom painting business specializing in murals, faux finishes and decorative painting.
