 rd \n\nsocial justice \n\n• Learn from artists already creating for ac
 tivism \n\n• Gain access to art + craft materials \n\n• Develop new 
 techniques \n\n \n\nCrafty Action Society is a way to bring people toget
 her to learn from local organizations working for social change and to d
 o so through “craftivism“- using creative expression to cultivate aw
 areness and spread their message. This monthly series will meet on the 3
 rd Wednesday of every month. Each session will start with a presentation
  from a local organization about how your creativity can help their caus
 e.⁠ After that\, we'll bring out the craft supplies and get to work cr
 eating. We’ll explore techniques from quilting and embroidery to stenc
 iling\, collage\, and papier-mâché ensuring activities are accessible 
 to beginners and more advanced makers alike. Materials\, snacks\, and be
 verages provided. \n\n \n\nWith this program\, we are raising money for 
 the organization that we are hosting and our own teen internship program
 . But no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Tickets are availabl
 e on a sliding scale from $10 - $40 which will also cover supplies\, sna
 cks\, and the assistance of our teaching staff. \n\n \n\nThe Center for 
 Visual Art is MSU Denver’s off-campus art center located at 10th and S
 anta Fe Drive. We present year-round exhibitions that encapsulate the po
 wer of art and its ability to spark dialogue and create pathways to chan
 ge. Whether giving voice to local artists or those with international re
 ach\, CVA’s exhibitions address complex social issues in a visual lang
 uage unlike any other form of communication.
