Description

Artists like Andy Goldsworthy use found natural materials and create art out in the wild. We’ll take a cue from his work and assemble our palette of color from the Shake Rag Alley campus to create our artwork. We’ll then work together to make a collaborative installation for everyone to enjoy; we’ll let Mother Nature decide what happens next.

I love reading and I’ve recently started experimenting with my green thumb. I’m looking forward to working in a small community and growing the Shake Rag Alley family!
