Martinique Mask-Making Workshop

From February 10-13 at NUNU Arts and Culture Collective in Arnaudville, Louisiana, you can attend a Martinique-style mask-making workshop. Jean-Luc Toussaint and Vanessa Guy are your guides as they compare and contrast practices found around the world including styles from Martinique and Acadiana.

Students will learn the beginning skills of modeling, constructing, and painting and will be encouraged to create masks that celebrate their true identity so that participants can say, “this, is who I am.”

Students will have access to sewing machines, a laser cutter, a 3D printer, and more. Finally, the workshop will be peppered with French and Creole languages.

NUNU Members will pay $150 + tax and processing fees while non-members will be billed an additional $300 on the day of arrival or provided with an opportunity to become a NUNU member.
