The Art of Marquetry<br />
Marquetry is a technique where different colors of<br />
wood veneers are carefully cut to fit precisely together<br />
creating a design in wood. The workshop will focus<br />
on the double-bevel method of marquetry. This highly<br />
accurate technique is cut by hand and creates tightly<br />
fitting marquetry pieces. With practice, the cutting of<br />
the veneers can be mastered. Through daily lecture,<br />
demonstration and hands-on work, participants will<br />
gain a thorough understanding of marquetry. No<br />

Summer Arts in <strong>Santa</strong> <strong>Fe</strong> is a series of workshops hosted by<br />
SFCC’s School of Arts and Design. The workshops will take<br />
place during the weeks surrounding the Sculptural Objects<br />
and Functional Art (SOFA) international exhibit at the<br />
<strong>Santa</strong> <strong>Fe</strong> Convention Center on August 4 to 7. Below are<br />
the workshops offered by this year’s renowned instructors.<br />
Drawing By Seeing<br />
This workshop will utilize concepts from John Torreano’s<br />
book “Drawing By Seeing.” The morning sessions are<br />
group directed and consist of exercises designed to<br />
confront the difference between seeing for everyday use<br />
and seeing for the purpose of drawing. The afternoon<br />
sessions will be individually directed wherein students try<br />
to apply ideas from the morning sessions to their own<br />
work. A number of slide discussions will be included. No<br />
refunds after July 24. To register by phone, please call<br />

Carving Techniques for Wood Sculpture<br />
This class is an introduction to direct carving techniques<br />
for wood sculpture. Begin with whole logs and by<br />
utilizing a variety of carving tools, from chain saw to<br />
wood lathe to chisel, explore the most direct path<br />
from idea to form. Surface treatments and texture will<br />
also be explored as a means of enhancing the form.<br />
Demonstrations will focus on safety, efficiency and the<br />
nature of wood as a material for sculpture. Start with<br />
an introductory project to develop familiarity with tools<br />
and then move on to more self-directed projects that<br />
represent a more personal aesthetic. Students will leave<br />
with the knowledge and skills to continue working. No<br />

Action Theater Training<br />
Through action workshop, participants learn about the<br />
present moment, how to be here, unveiling themselves<br />
to themselves, one moment at a time and one moment<br />
leading to the next. Zaporah’s exercises which are<br />
physical, vocal and verbal, invite the practitioner into<br />
unknown yet uncannily familiar territories, territories of<br />
the embodied imagination. By examining awareness,<br />
play, relationship, stillness and silence, actions<br />
become enlightened, become fresh. The capacity for<br />
feeling is strengthened as are the roots and tools of<br />
expression. This workshop is for the novice as well as<br />
the experienced, all those who would like to move. No<br />

directions. The purpose of the class is not to produce<br />
instant masterpieces, but rather for each student to<br />

of monotype techniques. No refunds after July 24. To<br />

Binoculars are highly versatile instruments that can<br />
reveal craters on the moon, the moons orbiting Jupiter,<br />
the Milky Way star fields and even other galaxies. In<br />
many ways, binoculars prove superior to telescopes for<br />
those staring out into space. Come to the planetarium<br />

Thursday, July 21, Practical Astrophotography: Digital<br />
Photography, or “drawing with light” in Greek, is a<br />
term coined long ago. Silver of silicon, photography<br />
is a good means to chronicle someone’s life. A picture<br />
tells a thousand words, so what an excellent way to<br />
document special moments, highlights and milestones.<br />
The night sky is full of objects ready to capture, but<br />
how can we do it<br />
Constellations: Figures in the Sky<br />
Wednesday, July 20, 8 to 9 p.m.<br />
Did you know there are 88 constellations that can<br />
be found in the night skies To the average person,<br />
a constellation is merely a group of stars that form a<br />
picture. But to the astronomer, a constellation points to<br />
a specific area in the night skies. Ancient and modern,<br />
constellations are easy to find. Let us tell you how to<br />
find them!<br />
Light Pollution: The Dark Side of Light<br />
Thursday, August 11, 8 to 9 p.m.<br />
For most of human history, the phrase “light pollution”<br />
would have made no sense. Now most of humanity<br />
lives under intersecting domes of reflected and refracted<br />
light. Two-thirds of humanity lives under skies polluted<br />
with light, and one-fifth can no longer see the Milky<br />
Way. Of all the pollution we face, light pollution is the<br />
most easily remedied.<br />
The Paradigm Shift: When and How the<br />
Scientific Revolution Began<br />

Wednesday, August 25, 8 to 9 p.m., Kepler and<br />
Tycho: The Geometry in the Skies<br />
Isaac Newton wrote: “If I have seen farther, it is by<br />
standing on the shoulders of giants”. Taken together;<br />
Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler and Tycho Brahe represent<br />
how science advanced in a series of incremental<br />
advances, each one building on what went before.<br />

Summer is finally here and Continuing Education has many opportunities to keep<br />
you busy either outdoors or in a classroom. Within this booklet are computer classes,<br />
arts or crafts classes, horseback riding, home building classes and even online courses<br />
through Education 2 Go. For kids, we have swimming classes, cooking camp and<br />
always plenty of creativity camps. We hope to hear from you soon and meet you in a<br />
classroom or out in the beautiful <strong>Santa</strong> <strong>Fe</strong> countryside.
