Center for Maine Contemporary Art invites high school students to participate in two teen workshops with exhibiting artist Kyle Downs. This program is free of charge, with limited space. Classes will work in groups directly with the Bowdoinham artist to create a recycled basketballs artwork. RSVP encouraged for both workshops on February 5 1:00 – 2:30 and February 10 from 2:30 – 4:00pm at CMCA to participate. Transportation to CMCA (21 Winter Street, Rockland) will be the responsibility of the student/school. CMCA will provide the artist, teaching assistant, art kits and organize an exhibition of the work following the conclusion of the workshops. 

About the instructor
Kyle is a multi-disciplinary artist whose practice occupies a broad spectrum – from sculpture and video, to performance and installation. Often focusing on the manipulation of existing objects or the physical occupation of a space, Kyle’s work is a reaction to his direct environment. Downs was born in Brunswick, Maine, and received his BFA from Maine College of Art. He has an MFA in Sculpture from the Ohio State University, and attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2014. Downs has taught classes at The School of the Alternative in Black Mountain NC, Columbus College of Art and Design OH, and Denison University in Granville OH. Downs currently lives and works in Bowdoinham ME with his family.
