SUMMARY:The Story Behind the Recipe
DESCRIPTION:Here in Austin\, we love food! And this summer\, Art Spark Texas needs your help to share the story behind your home recipes! During June and July we are offering Austin Seniors and Young Adults a series of multimedia art workshops that focus on building connection through food. We will learn the tools of visual art and video to share these recipes and stories. The focus of the videos will be “The Story Behind the Recipe”. Seniors will participate in a 4 week series of writing\, illustration\, and video interview activities. Classes for Seniors will take place 10-11:30 AM on Wednesdays. Young Adults will participate in a 6 week series of new media training workshops on audio/video recording\, animation\, and editing. Classes for young adults will take place 1:30-3 PM on Wednesdays. Each workshop covers a new tool and thus creates a new piece of content for our final videos. Our goal is to use the power of art to share Austin culture and bring together two diverse groups of people around the central focus of food. Artists of all experience levels welcome! \nRegister Here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeRoE7vaGk2o7kTgC-cD7IKPuXPWXIhUBxVUqM126fa4YFnrA/viewform?usp=sf_link
