Spring Session Educational Classes

Monday, April 21ST and continue through Saturday, June 16th.

This spring PrakSis is offering a Spring Session of exciting new classes by well-established Chicago based artists and educators.

PrakSis was born to create a dynamic art experience, migrating to diverse locations across the cityscape by transforming building spaces rendered vacant due to the downturn in the real estate market into living art galleries. Since June 2011, PrakSis has opened its doors to young people interested in learning about different practices within the arts. This has been a very exciting endeavor for PrakSis the teachers and the students.

Some classes being offered are: weaving, papermaking, green art, ceramics, video, bookmaking, painting and drawing. An expert in the field who has experience and enjoys working with young people will lead each class.

The educators:
Miyeon Kwon is Chicago based artist and graduate of The School of the Art Institute of Chicago who primarily works in ceramics and public art. Her work has been exhibited internationally and she has been teaching college and young people for the past two years. She is also the director of PrakSis gallery.

Kristie Keenon is a painter and educator who is a graduate of The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Columbia College. She has taught art in Chicago’s Charter School network as well as local City Colleges. She has shown her work nationally.

Soo Shin is a Chicago based painter, printmaker and fiber artist who has shown her work internationally. She has also worked as an adjunct professor at The School of the Art Institute.

Will Goss is a Chicago based photographer and educator. He graduated from The School of the Art Institute and has shown his work internationally. He is an adjunct professor at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Mike Gibbiser is a Chicago based filmmaker who graduated from The School of the Art Institute and University of Illinois Chicago. He is currently the Media Center Director at the University of Chicago.

We look forward to seeing you this spring!

Sincerely,
Mi-yeon Kwon
