The Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art has partnered with a field guild and botanical illustrator for Marvelous Mushrooms, a series of adult classes in September.
It sounds like these classes help people understand the art exhibitions more.There are new classes to help people identify the mushrooms when they're out in the field, with the added component of the drawing, so it's kind of a two-fer. Basically, you're going to identify the mushrooms, but also do a little sketching, and you don't have to be an artist to do it.
Marjorie will enhance the different specimens with what can be purchased locally, also. I think she'll have students go to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's or other places where they can buy a variety of mushrooms and bring those to class, and they'll also have their mushrooms that they had collected the week prior.The group is going to do a little bit of hiking, so we definitely want people to know that.
We're not used to seeing mushroom art that isn't part of a counterculture or doesn't glow in the dark, but mushrooms of all kinds are becoming popular. Did you think about that when trying to craft the materials and messaging for the class?I think that we were capitalizing on the popularity of mushrooms right now, because it has been in the public domain, in terms of medicinal mushrooms and things of that nature.
