ArtsClub Studio Nights are designed to help you learn about famous artists and create artwork inspired by them. In this Judy Chicago studio night, you’ll take what you learned about Judy Chicago during our tour of the Herstory exhibit and create your own painted plate in her style, inspired by her monumental Dinner Party installation. In keeping with Judy Chicago’s salon traditions, we’ll be sharing our own ideas on feminism, creativity and our personal female heroes as we create our plates.
