The Committee on Women and Art wants to bring Yoko Ono for Matrilineage this year. We thought the best way to invite her is to make a special Fluxus box for her. What can you give to Yoko? Or make in an hour? Come to this workshop and help make an artwork for Yoko. Bring an object or come ready to make something.

No need to buy gifts, we can make them: cards, books, art, crafts, t-shirts, videos, and anything else you can dream up. Dust off those supplies or odd scraps of materials you’ve been storing and share them. The AS in the AS has some supplies as well. If you have a special skill (bedazzling, string art, bookmaking, needlepoint, printmaking, assemblage) and come and show us how to do it.
