Virtual 3-Tree Art Workshop with Erika Harrsch

Draw a “persona-portrait” representing who you are, where you are from, and your background, in this workshop led by Teaching Artist-in-Residence Erika Harrsch. Inspired by the Surrealist “exquisite corpse” drawings, this exercise uniquely incorporates the idea of the genealogical family tree, a visual representation of a person’s lineage, as a way to learn family history in relation to historical events and culture. All you need is paper and pencils, markers, or pens, and this creative drawing collaboration will lead to unpredictable and interesting results!
