Library Art Class Series Celebrates HERstory Month

The Hoboken Public Library will celebrate March, Women’s HERstory Month, with Liz Cohen Ndoye, whose Wednesday Zoom class series, Art at Home, will focus on women artists, beginning on March 3 with a class on Ellen Gallagher.

“Women artists have been overlooked in the history of art, and what better time to learn about and celebrate some of the best?” Ndoye says. “Ellen Gallagher is an American artist of mixed-race heritage. She loves collage and refers to cutting her canvases and rejoining them to create new salvaged images. Her work is often about race and racial issues, but not always. She also loves natural forms and water, creatures and birds.”

Students will learn the techniques of collage and make their own based in a grid composition, like many of Gallagher’s pieces. Materials needed include scissors, glue sticks, acrylic paint, watercolor paint, pencils, white drawing paper, old magazines, and a variety of papers with different images, textures and colors. While they last, supplies will be available starting at noon on March 1, on the library’s grab-and-go shelf at the main branch.

Registration is required. Registration begins one week before the event and closes 15 minutes before the event. Those who register will receive a Zoom link and password to enter the class 15 minutes before the event begins. The class will be recorded and will be viewable later on the library’s YouTube channel.
