Come make miniature dioramas with us this Saturday!
Free Third Saturday workshop:
Saturday, November 16, 2–4 PM
SFArtsED gallery at 1275 Minnesota street

Join us for hands-on workshop led by SFArtsED Artist Mentor Zoe Farmer. Create imaginary worlds that fit in the palm of your hand! No experience is necessary, this workshop is free for all ages, materials will be provided.

About the Artist:
Before moving to the Bay Area in 2012, Zoe Farmer spent twelve years teaching at a diverse public school in London. A practicing artist since 2007, Ms. Farmer has shown her work in both London and San Francisco and earned an MFA in Fine Sculpture at California College of the Arts. Ms. Farmer’s art practice is interdisciplinary, and she works with a range of materials in both conventional and unconventional ways. A scuba diver with a life-long interest and investment in marine biology and a strong belief in our connection to the ocean, Ms. Farmer’s work seeks to explore the instability created when social constructs influence the fabrication of scientific truth. Ultimately, the social constructions of our society become conspicuous and limiting against the adaptable, fluid bodies of the animals and organisms that she observes.
