SUMMARY:Stitched Snapshot: words and pictures
DESCRIPTION:\nWednesday, February 12, 6:00 – 8:00pm @ MoA\n\n\n\nCost: $25 for one person or $40 for two\n\n\n\nby Jane Waggoner Deschner\n\n\n\nTake old photos, let them speak to you, and memorialize them through embroidered words!\n\n\n\nThis workshop is led by Jane Waggoner Deschner who is the named artist in “Remember me.” an exhibition that will be open from January 24 – March 16. She will be taking you through a journey where you will learn techniques and processes to stitch directly onto old photos quotes, sayings, or whatever it is that the photo is speaking to you. It is a wonderful way to reflect on who a person was or may have been during their lifetime.\n\n\n\nAll supplies provided including old photos, but you can and are encouraged to bring your own! They do not have to be old and can include family, friends, pets, or even strangers.\n\n\n\nNo experience needed!\n\n\n\nVisit Jane’s Website: http://www.janedeschner.com/\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@media screen and (min-width:690px){.stk-e2c807e {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(50% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 1 / 2 ) !important;}}\nInstructor: Jane Waggoner Deschner\n\n\n\n\n@media screen and (min-width:690px){.stk-95078c3 {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(50% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 1 / 2 ) !important;}}\nArtist statement:Disappointing experiences and unmet expectations of “happy family” have zigzagged through my life, leading to my fascination with twentieth century found photographs. People take snapshots and studio portraits out of love; they’re creating a history by recording a history. Through other people’s family photos, I explore our shared human experiences to better understand my own. Engaging with the anonymous, remixed tributes stimulates nostalgia, evokes warm personal memories, and reminds us of our social connections.Bio:Montana-based Jane Waggoner Deschner has been an exhibiting artist for over forty years; for twenty years her medium has been the found family photograph. Her work has been shown in numerous venues including Robert Mann Gallery, NYC; University of Michigan–Dearborn; Missoula Art Museum, MT; Churchill Arts, Fallon, NV; and other regional galleries and museums. Her immersive installation, “Remember me.” debuted at the Yellowstone Art Museum, Billings, MT, in 2022, and toured through the Montana Art Gallery Directors Association. The Montana Arts Council chose her for an Artist Innovation Award in 2019–20 and an ARPA grant in 2022. She has participated in numerous residencies across the US and in Canada. She earned an MFA from Vermont College of Fine Arts in 2002. After growing up in Kansas, she moved to Montana in 1977. In addition to being a mixed media artist, she works as an exhibition installer, graphic designer, photographer, curator, instructor and picture framer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick Here to Register!\n\n\n\n\n
