Patience and Zion Vanover and Seamus and Clare Higgins spray paint “human” as part of FestivALL’s “Press 2 for Spanish” workshop.

On Thursday, June 26, two local artists will be promoting art along with mutual understanding at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore.

If you want to learn Spanish, help Habitat for Humanity and use some spray paint, come to the workshop from 5 to 7 p.m. Artist Amy Williams, who along with Chris Dutch, made the FestivALL Charleston installation “Press 2 for Spanish” will expand the exhibit to the ReStore. Workshop participants (children and adults) will learn the Spanish words for all things home and construction. “We’ll be making signs from recycled cardboard with the translation for things like wood, sinks, furniture,” says Williams.

Mark Wolfe, who photographed the installation “Fringe,” will also be giving an artist talk. (more…)
