Inspired by Sarah Crowner’s painting made of tiles for the Carnegie International, this special session invites you to historic Braddock Carnegie Library’s Bathhouse Ceramics Studio. Join the artist and KT Tierney of Braddock Tiles as they discuss their process, then make your own stack of tiles by drawing on leather-hard clay! A tour of the magnificent library building will cap the afternoon.

All materials will be supplied. No experience necessary. Fired tiles will be ready for pick-up on designated days.

Sarah Crowner is a New York–based artist participating in Carnegie International, 57th Edition, 2018.

About Tam O’Shanter Drawing Sessions

These creative sessions are for those who draw and for those who don’t. Explore contemporary art through improvised forms of drawing with artists and organizers of the Carnegie International. Sketching, doodling, cartooning, mapping, writing, and marking are among the many modes that will bring us together.

Named after the original art classes for young people that Carnegie Museum of Art has been holding since 1929; the tam o’shanter, or tam, is a Scottish beret—oft adorned by a pompom.
