SUMMARY:Make A Scrimshaw Light Plate
DESCRIPTION:Try your hand at a historic craft using modern materials.  Scrimshaw is a folk art that whaling vessels crew members learned to pass the time while at sea – for up to four years at a time. They created tools\, games and gifts for loved ones.  Originally etched on whale teeth and baleen\, come try the technique on a plastic light switch plate. Tina DeVilliers will show you how\, sharing her experience with this 19th Century art form. \nTen years ago\, the Claflin Scrimshaw collection entered the care of the Sippican Historical Society. You can find inspiration for your light switch there\, try other ideas or bring your own. \nBorn into a Norwegian fishing family\, Tina followed her artistic passion after graduating from Fairhaven High School\, attending art school in Portland\, Maine\, the John Campbell Folk School and many other drawing and painting workshops. For most of her working life\, she’s been on boats and yachts\, which shapes her artistic eye.. \nWe’ll provide the materials\, and donations gratefully accepted. Space is limited\, so email info@sippicanhistoricalsociety.org to reserve your spot now.
