SUMMARY:Celebrate the life of Marlin G. Lord\, Founding Member and Legend
DESCRIPTION:Revered and beloved Del Ray Artisans Board Emeritus and Founding Member Marlin G. Lord passed away on Tuesday\, October 18\, 2022. Marlin was 84 years old. Join us on Sunday\, November 13 from 6-8pm at Del Ray Artisans gallery to celebrate Marlin’s life. \nA gifted\, accomplished architect and photographer\, Marlin left his mark upon the city in ways seen and unseen. As a former President of the Del Ray Citizens Association as well as past Treasurer\, Community/Business Liaison\, and Facilities Director of Del Ray Artisans\, where he was a founding member along with his loving and longtime dedicated partner Kathryn A. Brown\, Marlin left an indelible mark on our community. \nYou cannot think of Marlin without Kathryn or Kathryn without Marlin. Together their civic activism\, community service\, philanthropic pursuits\, and arts advocacy have made DRA and the ever eclectic yet prosperous Del Ray into what we know today. Their altruistic endeavors have cast a ripple effect upon making Alexandria better and better for over three decades—earning them Alexandria Living Legend induction in 2013. \nBorn in Michigan and raised in Minnesota\, Marlin earned degrees in architecture in 1960 and 1962. He’s best known professionally for the straightening of the Monroe Avenue Bridge along Route 1\, a project resulting in the corollary expansion of parkland at Simpson Field. Marlin also was integral in the redevelopment design of Potomac Yard. \nMarlin’s curricula vitae of civic engagement reads on and on: the Alexandria Arts Forum; the Alexandria Park and Recreation Commission\, where he served for 20 years\, seven as Chairman; the Chinquapin Organic Gardens; King Street Gardens Park Foundation and countless City committees and task forces. With Kathryn by his side\, a tandem partner in all things\, there was always time to give\, to give back\, and give all. Marlin was truly a man for all seasons and is an Alexandria legend for all time. \nPhoto: Marlin G. Lord (2011)

SUMMARY:NERDY: Tessellation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Bridget Anthony-HliouiDate/Time: Wednesday\, September 28 from 12-3pmCost: $60 DRA member / $70 non-member; plus $5 Supply FeeClass size:  4-10 participants(Register by September 24) \nDel Ray Artisans turns THIRTY this year. To celebrate\, take one or more of our rhyming programs in September! \nDuring the NERDY: Tessellation Workshop use your love of art with basic math and geometry to explore the process of tessellation on a 2D surface. To tessellate you create a pattern that completely covers a surface without gaps or overlaps. Think of the awe-inspiring Al Humbra\, works of Escher\, and American quilts. \nFirst the instructor will review artworks that use tessellation and share how this process has influenced her own artistic process and art; then\, through a working demonstration\, you will measure\, make templates\, and trace. Next you will explore patterns made by adjacent\, sliding and translating shapes. Upon the completion of your basic pattern\, make the creative decision to either maintain a purely geometric theme or add organic variances through subtle details. Once your pattern is established\, you will “ink” and apply color patterns. WARNING: The drawing of repeated patterns is known to have a calming effect! 😉 \nUpon the completion of the workshop\, you will have a better understanding of how artists use math and geometry\, and will have practiced the tessellation process completing at least one work of art. \nThe $5 supply fee covers basics. Please bring these supplies with you: \n\n12-inch ruler\nScissors\nBlack Illustration Pens or Ultra-Fine & Fine point Sharpies\nControllable Medium for adding color in small areas. (Suggestions: Colored pencils\, permanent or alcohol markers\, watercolor pencils\, and/or paints: Gouache\, watercolor\, acrylic. If you bring paints\, please also bring small brushes.)\n\nFace masks are recommended inside the gallery. \nRegister Now \nAbout the Instructor: Bridget Anthony-Hlioui is a veteran educator\, art curriculum developer\, Certified Art Therapy Life Coach\, and working artist who incorporates her love of geometry in her own artwork. \n\nView other upcoming workshops\, information about the facility and policies on the Upcoming Workshops page.

SUMMARY:HURDY GURDY: Build your own musical instrument! (FULL)
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is full. \nInstructor: Erica HughesDate/Time: Saturday\, Sept 24 from 5:30-8:30pm AND Sunday\, Sept 25 from 10am-1pmCost: $15 DRA member / $25 Non-member; plus $60 Supply FeeClass size: 2-10 participants(Register by September 10) \nDel Ray Artisans turns THIRTY this year. To celebrate\, take one or more of our rhyming programs in September! \nDuring the HURDY GURDY workshop you will build your own working medieval wheel instrument! The hurdy gurdy looks like a spaceship\, but you turn the handle that presses a rosined wheel against two strings. First mentioned in a 10th century manuscript with two operators\, the hurdy gurdy became a one-person instrument in the 13th century and all the rage in the 17th century court of King Louis XIV. In Ukraine\, it is known as the lira or relia. It was and still is played by professional\, often blind\, itinerant musicians known as lirnyky. \nNo experience necessary. Follow step-by-step instructions with a punning historian who can’t remember left and right! You will be chortling as you assemble your very own wooden puzzle and sing along to Donovan. \nFace masks are recommended inside the gallery. \nRegister Now \n\nView other upcoming workshops\, information about the facility and policies on the Upcoming Workshops page.
