This workshop will be an interactive Zoom meeting where Kim will give each participant one square of a word puzzle. Each participant will work with lights and darks (markers, pencils, paint, whatever) on their mystery square.
When finished they will email or text all of the pieces back to Kim. She will then assemble them to reveal the mystery word which will be released on the Artists & Makers Week website on Monday morning!
