Ringling College's Sarasota Museum of Art/SMOA Seeks Donations of Reusable Trash for its 2014 "ARTmuse" Program
Artist Lisa Hoke is known for taking trash to
treasure, transforming discarded, everyday materials into colorful,
one-of-a-kind artworks that have been exhibited at major art museums and
galleries. The artist will spend three weeks creating one of her innovative
installations inside the historic Sarasota High School. SMOA invites area
residents to participate in the project by donating their discarded cereal
boxes, paper goods boxes, produce boxes, office supply boxes, shoe boxes,
liquor boxes and more. The boxes should be colorful, not ripped or crinkled. No
plastic please. Drop-off days are October 19, November 9 and December 14
from 11am to 2pm at the historic Sarasota High School, 1001 S. Tamiami Trail,
Sarasota. Docents are also sought for this project. To inquire about docent
training, call 941-309-7662.
