Here are some photos from my Plaster Possibilities class that just wrapped up at Redux Contemporary Art Center. The kids were great! They weren't afraid to get messy and make some really neat work.

teaching technique with edible materials

My edible materials class at Redux finished up this past week. We had a lot of fun, molding dough, carving melons, casting chocolate and building with pasta! These images are from our last class. The kid's made some pretty neat sculptures with pasta and hot glue!

Kate: 12 years old

Connor: 9 years old

Emily: 12 years old

Zoe: 13 years old


My plaster class starts this coming week. I believe I have 6 students this time, so it should be a blast!

teaching at REDUX

This Spring I'll be teaching some youth classes at Redux Contemporary Art Center. I'm very excited to work with kids in this capacity. See my class descriptions below... or CLICK HERE to see all the other classes offered up this spring!


Sculpture Basics: Teaching Technique with Edible Materials (recommended for ages 7-13)

Wednesdays, 4pm - 5:30pm March 2 - 23
Instructor: Lauren Moore
Member $90 / Non-Member $110

Each week students will learn about a different fundamental sculpture technique, but with a yummy twist! We’ll mold bread dough, carve melons, cast chocolate, and more! Looking at classic artists and their traditional methods, we’ll talk about the basic elements of sculpture and see how contemporary artists are pushing the envelope with nontraditional materials, like food! Bring your appetite for art! Materials included.

(recommended for ages 7 – 13)

This four-week class will be an exploration of all the sculptural possibilities of that messy white stuff known as plaster. We’ll learn to mix it, pour it, carve it, turn it colors, build with it, and more! Students will be encouraged to use their creativity to construct original 3D forms while learning all the fun things that plaster can do! Materials and snacks included.
