Part of Sonic Sculptures, a series of events situated around a structure turning Broadway Gallery into an instrument.

Join this social workshop for an evening of hands-on, low-pressure, collaborative creative activities, hosted by No Jobs in the Arts and artist Miriam Bean.

This is a free event. Drop in from 6:00pm–8:00pm, no ticket required.

Responding to sounds and music through drawing encourages spontaneity, presence, and sensory awareness. It promotes a playful, self-directed creative process, free from rigid aesthetic or technical standards of making.

About Miriam Bean

Working with sound as both a medium and a subject, Miriam explores tones and dissonance to create indeterminate installations.

Alongside these larger projects, she makes visual works examining the relationship between sound and image by manipulating computer data in combination with more traditional media like drawing and printmaking.
