Zane Bennett Collection Study Room (room 106)
Who do you want to be when you grow up? The UAM invites you to join one of our series of workshops where students will engage in conversations about self-representation and envisioning their futures. Inspired by Cindy Sherman's Untitled Film Stills on display in Warhol & Friends, participants in the workshops will have the opportunity to study the work of Cindy Sherman, learn photography basics, use props and costumes to create a scene that reflect their aspirations for the future. Some props and costumes will be provided, but participants are encouraged to bring their own items. After the workshop, everyone will receive a physical print of their image.
Local artist Marcus Xavier Chormicle will lead the workshop, teaching students about the work of Cindy Sherman and helping photograph each scene. Each workshop has a capacity of 20 participants, please register to secure your spot. Follow the links to register for June 21, July 2, or July 19.
