Texture & Repetition: Stencils are OK

April 11 @ 1:00 pm 2:30 pm

Join artist Micah Kraus for a hands-on workshop exploring texture, repetition, and layering through stencil-based mark making.

Approaching creativity through the lens of a printmaker, Kraus’s practice centers on process, iteration, and experimentation—often combining analog and digital tools while allowing words, phrases, and visual elements to evolve through repetition and inversion.

During this session, Kraus will combine a process demonstration with a conversation about the artwork currently on view at Peg’s Gallery. Participants will experiment with stencils created by the artist using a variety of mark-making techniques, exploring the possibilities of texture, repetition, and layered imagery.

As the workshop unfolds, Kraus will share insights into his creative process and discuss the work on view, inviting questions and conversation throughout. This playful and exploratory experience highlights the importance of observation and reaction as ideas develop, offering participants a chance to see how artistic process and visual expression connect.

All events are free and open to the public.

No registration necessary.

Weave-n-Wonder Workshop

Please register in advance, as space is limited. Join us for a hands-on weaving workshop that blends creativity, curiosity, and playful learning for all ages. Weave-n-Wonder invites children ages 6 and up (with adult support as needed) and curious learners of all ages into a relaxed, hands-on weaving experience. Participants will create simple woven bracelets and bookmarks while exploring how patterns, structure, and design come together through making. Designed to be low-pressure and accessible, the workshop encourages curiosity, patience, and creative exploration. As participants weave, they naturally engage with foundational ideas in fine motor development, pattern recognition, and early math thinking—experiencing how art and science reinforce one another in tangible, approachable ways. The workshop is led by Gargi Bhaduri, whose early life was shaped by both artistic encouragement and a strong grounding in math and science—two perspectives she came to understand as deeply connected. With a PhD in Human Environmental Sciences and over 20 years of experience in fashion research and education, she founded Weave-n-Wonder under her parent organization, Fabric of Learning. The program emerged from her observation that abstract math concepts often become more accessible when translated into hands-on, tactile experiences like weaving. Weave-n-Wonder reflects a simple but intentional idea: learning deepens when it is active, creative, and rooted in real-world making. This event is free and open to the public. Free parking is available on city streets and lots throughout the walkable downtown neighborhood of Hudson, Ohio.
