We can accommodate a variety of schedules, length of classes/workshops and mediums.
Artist Speaker Series
We are looking for artists to do 1-1 ½ hour long presentations for Front Porch retirement communities’ residents. These opportunities are currently being done via Zoom but will resume in person as well. These events are for general art appreciation audiences to engage and offer ongoing interest and learning opportunities. This is an in-depth presentation which can be a presentation of the artists career, can be an exploration of particular mediums or techniques, can be a full demonstration of art making, etc. These sessions include Q&A.
Please email Julie Weaverling at jweaverling@frontporch.net with your ideas. Please include as much detail as possible. An Honorarium is offered.
Present/Demonstrate
We are looking for artists to demonstrate your work or share a presentation on an art topic to Front Porch retirement communities’ residents who are part of the Kitchen Table Art Project art group. This is an opportunity which happens via Zoom with experienced and new artists. This would be around a 40-minutes up to an hour event with a resulting project idea for residents to work on. Please email Julie Weaverling at jweaverling@frontporch.net with your ideas. An Honorarium is offered.

Womens Woven Voices
Front Porch Gallery is partnering with Women’s Woven Voices, a global women’s empowerment project. Front Porch Gallery is offering free kits to create a simple woven story cloth which will become part of a large tapestry shown at our Creating Meaning exhibition opening in November and later joining the larger project to be exhibited at women’s conferences, museums and hopefully the U.N. This opportunity is a meaningful and enjoyable project being offered to Front Porch retirement communities’ residents and staff, family, friends, artists and the greater community. Please feel free to share with anyone you think maybe interested. Kits are available at the gallery.
