Join MAG Artist Saija Maureen for our Making Art History program to explore DADAism on February 28, 2024 at 6:30 pm.

Learn the weird and wonderful world of DADA. What is DADA, you ask? Dadaism is an art style and artistic philosophy that emerged in response to the aftermath of World War One. A group of artists and poets formed a collective with the goal of making nonsensical art in response to the feeling that the war (and the world left in its’ wake) was cruelly senseless. It was a subversive art movement, but it still brought a sense of joy and fun to a strange and scary time in history. Come learn more and try your hand at our Dadaist art collage!

Have you ever wanted to learn the history behind different art styles, and try your hand at creative projects that’s friendly for beginners? Making Art History is an exciting new program for artists and history aficionados. Each class starts with a brief lesson on art’isms’ (art movements) or artists in history, as well as contemporary artists, followed with a beginner-friendly art project.

Pre-register to guarantee a spot (drop-in available). All supplies are included with registration. For ages 14+.

We recommend arriving on time, as the mini lecture session will occur at the beginning of the program, followed by an art project that will allow participants to further immerse themselves in and understand the subject matter.
