Art Club: Music Sampling, Night 1

This winter, Art Club is warming up with new workshops and a bar. Each week offers a standing invitation to explore and create across our campus. Stop by the Art Lab for drop-in artmaking with Walker educators. Every week is a chance to experiment with a new medium, idea, or muse. A cash bar is available in the lobby so you can sip while you create.

Dip your toes into experimenting with sound through interactive music-sampling workshops. This is the first night of a three-part series. Each week is a continuation of learning and interacting with simple techniques for loop pedal sampling.

Join us for Night 1 to make your own DIY instruments and noisemakers.

Activity instructions, available in English and Spanish, are designed for ages 4 and up. Materials are provided and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis; supplies are limited. No prior registration is required for Art Club: the more you visit, the more you’ll discover.

In March of 1984, Keith Haring was an artist-in-residence at the Walker, and created a mural of epic proportions. The mural was created in a single day.

Walker Art Center: In celebration of the opening of the exhibition Keith Haring: Art Is for Everybody, join us for a panel with Gil Vazquez, Ann Magnuson, and Muna Tseng, moderated by Kimberly Drew. The discussion will introduce several facets of the artist’s wide-ranging practice and consider his influence on contemporary culture. With an artistic language that moved seamlessly from the underground into mass cultural prominence, Haring’s career traversed several artistic and social worlds. Panelists will reflect on Haring’s radical vision for art’s place in the public sphere as well as his diverse connections in a cross-disciplinary scene composed of musicians, activists, designers, actors, dancers, filmmakers, and critics.
