SUMMARY:Sketch Like No One is Watching Book Release
DESCRIPTION:Join Molly Egan for some drawing\, drinks\, snacks\, and books to start your Friday night! Bring a copy of Sketch Like No One is Watching if you’ve already purchased or purchase one at the event. All ages are welcome and some basic art supplies will be provided. There will also be print-outs from the book available to doodle on. \nAbout the Book \nDrawing can improve your mood\, release endorphins and make you happy – but for many\, the fear of the blank page\, combined with a lack of confidence and know-how\, can be daunting. \nIn her new book\, Molly Egan encourages you to sketch like no one is watching! Once you stop caring what people think – just like when you were a child – your creativity will flow. Filled with drawing prompts and tutorials\, Molly will help you to unleash your creativity and embrace your own unique style. Build your skills by revisiting the basics\, such as shape\, perspective and pattern\, then learn how to draw from photographs and from real life\, sketching people\, nature\, buildings\, landscapes and more. \nSmall enough to put in your bag\, yet big enough to make impactful art\, this fun title will reignite your passion for being creative.

SUMMARY:Dox to Light: The Life and Works of Dox Thrash Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join Fleisher Art Memorial and the McIntosh Rollins Foundation for the opening reception of Dox to Light: The Life and Works of Dox Thrash Friday\, October 20\, 6–8pm\, featuring live performance by celebrated jazz musicians Robert Kenyatta and Alfie Pollitt! \nThis event is free and open to the public. Registration is encouraged\, but not required. \nDox to Light: The Life and Works of Dox Thrash \nOn view October 20 – November 17\, 2023\nDene M. Louchheim Galleries\nFleisher Art Memorial \nDox to Light: The Life and Works of Dox Thrash features early sketches\, prints\, and more experimental pieces from Dox Thrash’s later years. In addition to highlighting the evolution of Thrash’s style and technique\, the collection illustrates his critical role as a mentor and friend to an entire generation of up-and-coming artists\, and his centrality as a community organizer. \nThis exhibition is made possible through a collaboration with the McIntosh Rollins Foundation\, which manages the collection of Dr. Esther Rollins and David McIntosh. The collection is a unique amalgamation of works by Dox Thrash\, privately gifted to a family that the artist counted among his closest friends. For the McIntosh Rollins family\, Thrash’s art punctuated their lives in a formative way. In sharing this collection with the public for the first time\, they offer an intimate opportunity to experience its collective impact. \nFleisher presents this exhibition as part of its 125th anniversary year programming to highlight its mission of providing art access to Philadelphians regardless of artistic ability or economic means. Thrash’s legacy serves as an enduring inspiration for artists at all stages of their creative pursuits\, including many who frequent Fleisher’s classrooms and studios to this day. \nDox to Light: The Life and Works of Dox Thrash is made possible by the generous support of the Edna W. Andrade Fund of the Philadelphia Foundation. The exhibition is organized by the McIntosh Rollins Foundation in collaboration with Fleisher Art Memorial\, with contributions from Dolan/Maxwell. \nImage: Dox Thrash\, Grinder (detail)\, c. 1940\, carborundum mezzotint\, 9 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches\, courtesy of the McIntosh Rollins Foundation.

SUMMARY:Papercutting: Valentine's Day Edition (Evening)
DESCRIPTION:Valentine cards date back to the early 1800’s. Inspired by German folk art\, these cards were designed with pin pricks or to look lacy. Over time the designs evolved to full out papercuts.  In each session\, led by Mindy Shapiro\, you will see some historical examples and create your own cards using either templates or your very own design!
