SUMMARY:Art 101: Mingei/Japanese Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Know Mingei? If not\, don’t worry—it’s a fascinating part of Japanese art and culture that many people aren’t familiar with. Mingei (民芸) means “folk art” in Japanese. It was a movement that started in the 1920s when a philosopher named Yanagi Sōetsu noticed that everyday handcrafted objects—like pottery\, textiles\, baskets\, and woodwork—had a unique beauty even though they weren’t made by famous artists. Instead of focusing on expensive\, one-of-a-kind pieces\, Mingei celebrates the humble\, functional\, and handmade objects used by ordinary people. Join Craft Collections and Program Specialist Amanda Hiatt and Curatorial Fellow Sade Moore for a classroom-style lecture covering the fundamentals of Mingei art! \nAbout Art 101:  \nThe Art 101 Series is a fun and accessible introduction to the world of art\, designed for anyone curious about creativity\, visual expression\, and art history. These engaging classes break down art movements\, techniques\, and visual literacy in an easy-to-understand way—no prior knowledge required! Whether you’re exploring Renaissance masterpieces\, modern street art\, or traditional folk crafts\, Art 101 makes it all approachable and exciting. Through storytelling\, games\, art making\, and interactive discussions\, you’ll learn to see art in a new way\, understand its deeper meanings\, and even create your own interpretations. Perfect for beginners and art lovers alike\, the Art 101 Series turns art history into an adventure—because art should be fun\, not intimidating!  \nLocation: Ceramics Research Center\, Brickyard Engineering\, 699 S Mill Ave #108\, Tempe\, AZ 85281 \nDate: Sunday\, July 13\, 2025 \nTime: 10 a.m. – Noon  \nRSVP HERE >>>
