Happy Hour in the Artist's Studio with Betsy Youngquist

Dive into the fantastical world of Betsy Youngquist, who uses the detail and texture of beads to transform found objects into gorgeous sculpture. Her work has graced the cover of American Style magazine and featured by the Smithsonian Craft Show. “I believe objects can absorb and retain...energy. I like using old materials for this reason. Old doll parts, old glass eyes, old glass jewelry components, old beads.” Her life-size piece "Sally Ride” exhibited in AVAM’s “The Great Mystery Show.” The live studio tour includes an interactive audience Q&A. Free, with RSVP required.
