April 26 @ 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Start your weekend with free art-making fun for all ages and skill levels in AMFA’s Windgate Art School!
Inspired by the iconic photography on view in Kwame Brathwaite: The 1970s, this Creative Saturdays activity invites you to explore the art of fashion design.
Brathwaite was a pivotal figure in the “Black is Beautiful” movement, and his work celebrated natural beauty and African heritage, capturing bold styles and cultural expression. Using fashion design stencils and fabric samples, create your own unique outfits and couture pieces by embracing the vibrant aesthetics and empowering themes present in Brathwaite’s photography.
Creative Saturdays are supported by the Alice L. Walton Foundation.
