HANDS-ON ART WORKSHOPS
Throughout the year, SSG sponsors ten hands-on art workshops as part of the Community Initiative, an outreach program designed to reach out to our underserved neighbors in the Charlottesville area. Workshops are offered throughout the year, in which local artists lead participants in a variety of artmaking activities. The workshops are strategically planned to supplement the club members' art education in their local schools. Past artist participants include Dean Dass, Russell Richards and Mara Sprafkin. SSG has been selected by the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts to collaborate in their Statewide Partnership Program, which provides access to renowned artists available for hands-on workshops.

We had a great time with Big Brothers Big Sisters last night making teeny tiny art inspired by our Teeny Tiny Trifecta exhibition! If you want to help SSG continue to bring these kinds of exhibitions and outreach programs to the gallery, please consider making a donation to our current Crowdfunding Campaign: https://igg.me/at/SSG45 Even a teeny tiny donation will help us work towards our goal!

Tina Curtis’s work is inspired by the “living abstractions” of the ocean, the barnacles and sea urchins and coral that create living art just beneath the surface. We are honored to have Tina as a part of our Teeny Tiny Trifecta exhibition! The show will be up until the end of September if you’d like to see it in person, but you can also view available works on our online store: https://squareup.com/store/second-street-gallery-inc/
