Event Description What makes an icon? Drawing inspiration from concurrent exhibition "Fashioning an Icon: Virgin of Guadalupe Imagery in Textile Design," high school students were invited to create work exploring the visual themes of what makes a figure an icon. Students selected a personally meaningful iconic figure to explore through craft forms including but not limited to clay, metal, jewelry, furniture design, glass, textiles, weaving, basketry, fashion design, and craft-based mixed media. All student work on view has been made by hand, by high schoolers during the 2024/2025 school year.
