Join MAD in the Open Studios for a night of hands-on art making, music, food, and drink in celebration of the Museum's current exhibition Slash: Paper Under the Knife. Local do-it-yourself artists will demonstrate their personal skills and help guide you in creating your own paper-based projects. Techniques will range from book-making to jewelry-making, among other cut paper projects. In addition to do-it-yourself workshops, the DIY Salon will include drinks, snacks, and a live DJ. Guided tours of Slash will be available. Over 200 people did-it-themselves at this event last year, so don't miss out this time around!
