Unearth a Story: Copper Wire Sculptures
Location
About
Unearth a Story at your community library with the Utah Museum of Fine Arts! Nurture your curiosity, feed your imagination, and embrace the joy of discovery.
Join the UMFA at the Salt Lake City Public Library to create your own mini copper sculpture. Copper is an important metal found in the earth and mined right here in Salt Lake City! The UMFA features many artworks made of copper, including Onishi Yasuaki’s large scale installation Stone on Boundary and Ximena Garrido-Lecca’s Modulations – Sequence VI. Get inspired by copper artists, then twist and model copper wire to create our own mini sculpture!
Please note that this event takes place in the Children’s Library and is meant for families with children only. Adults are welcome at all other UMFA workshops. Check out Third Saturday for Families, Open Studio for Adults, or Drop-in Drawing Disco events this summer!
