About this event

You're Invited to Elizabeth & Lisa's Play Date!

Art is for everyone! Join artist Lisa Ludwig, founder of The Art Neighborhood, for a floating workshop where we’ll create miniature art and 3D self-portrait action figures using found objects and reclaimed materials. Be inspired by Elizabeth’s art exhibition and Lisa’s creative techniques and insights. 

Your pieces will be displayed in a diorama of the gallery—inside the gallery itself! At the end of the exhibit, all artwork will become part of The Art Neighborhood—you’ll truly be a Part of the Art!

Materials provided, but feel free to bring objects or materials that inspire you. Come play, create, and contribute to this interactive community art experience!

Organized by

Elizabeth Gordon Stilwell unravels the tangled threads of her evangelical childhood and the ideals of American culture, beauty, sex, gender, and home that came with it. Through large, layered pieces—ranging from sculptures to textiles—she stitches together personal memorabilia and found materials to explore the deliciously complicated terrain of girlhood. Ribbons, pink, mirrors, and religious icons weave through the rooms, echoing the sweet loss of innocence and turning the world’s uninvited gaze back on itself. Here, adorable meets horror, and the absurdity of being a girl is laid bare.
