See Like an Artist: Principles & Elements of Visual Art


Adult Enrichment / Fine Arts & Crafts -
Winter 2026

Visual art has ingredients, just like your favorite recipe. Experiment and explore while creating a visual “cookbook” of the principles and elements of art and design to refer to in the future and help you understand why you like—or don’t like—what you see around you. Whether you consider yourself not creative or live creatively every day, this workshop invites you to see the world in a new way. Basic materials are provided, and you’re welcome to bring your own tools if you’d like to work in a specific medium.

Abigail McMurray of Yeiou Paper Objects is an Arlington-based artist who makes 3D paper art that celebrates home and the importance of Place in our life stories. Abigail’s work calls attention to the shapes of the places we live, be that a building, a neighborhood, a town, or a state. She believes that everyone is creative, and that playfulness is the best way to approach art making. View samples of Abigail’s paper art at yeiou.com.
