About this Event

Celebrate Edmonia Lewis: Said in Stone with an introduction to handbuilding with natural, air-dry clay!

First, take a guided tour with Jeffrey Richmond-Moll, PEM’s George Putnam Curator of American Art, who will offer an exclusive look at the iconic clay and marble sculptures and other works in the exhibition. Afterward, engage in a creative workshop led by artist Gustavo Tavares Barceloni. Reflect on Edmonia Lewis’ works and learn how to make clay sculptures of your choice.
