The Art Gallery of Alberta respectfully acknowledges that we are located in Treaty 6 Territory and Region 4 of the Metis Nation of Alberta. We respect this as the traditional and contemporary  land of diverse Indigenous Peoples including the Plains Cree, Woodland Cree, Beaver Cree, Nitsitapi/Blackfoot, Métis, Nakota Sioux, Anishinaabe/Saulteaux/Ojibwe and Dene Peoples. We also acknowledge the many Indigenous, Inuit and Métis people who make Alberta their home today.

Kids Drop-In: See with your Pencil?

Inspired by the William Townsend exhibition, let’s look at Edmonton in some new ways. Drawing from memory, and then from what you are looking at, hone your skills at seeing. Develop this into a drawing with strings and yarn and watch your line become sculpture. Weather permitting: outdoor sketching!

Bios

Mitch has wanted to be a teacher since second grade. Every interaction with students is unique & dynamic. Teaching offers a chance to create environments cultivated for playful failure & co-operative creation. A graduate of the U of A’s combined BA Drama/BEd Secondary program, Mitchell's grateful for the chance to explore art-making, media-studies, and peer-to-peer interactions with kids. 

In his spare time Mitch consumes an absurd amount of film, video games, and comics. You can hear more of him on his podcasts: WenghTalk Radio- an topic/interview based show - or We Watch Food- a food in media show.
