Summer Art Camp

The Art of Mending
Ages 14 and up

Breathe new life into items that need repair by turning them into exciting works of art using visible mending techniques demonstrated by an experienced instructor. Explore the exciting art of mending movement by experimenting with shibori fabric dying, kintsugi pottery repair, and denim and fabric collage patchwork. Discover the blend of sustainability and self-expression as you learn how to create meaningful, one-of-a-kind art pieces out of materials that you otherwise would throw away. No experience is necessary for this beginner-friendly, four-day camp.


Monday–Wednesday, June 16–18, and Friday, June 20, 1:30pm–4:30pm at the ZMA. The ZMA is closed Thursday, June 19 in observance of Juneteenth.

Instructor: Katlin Hatfield

Hello! My name is Katlin Hatfield I am an art instructor and small business owner based in Dresden, Ohio, where I provide expert sewing services and alterations. I have a passion for clothing design, I channel my creativity into both my business and art. During the summer, I host free Saturday art classes, my goal is to encourage a love for creativity in my community. Throughout the school year, I support educational programs at the Zanesville Museum of Art, facilitating enriching field trips for students. I'm a dedicated mom, I enjoy creating art with my kiddo across various mediums, making artistic exploration a family affair. It will be my second year as an art instructor with the ZMA and I'm super excited to create with everyone! This summer I am privileged to have the opportunity to share some of my textile knowledge and teach how mending can be an opportunity for self-expression! Can't wait to meet everyone!
