ART SOCIAL: SHELL DECOUPAGE WITH HEIDI WRIGHT STEVENS
Using nature found in our own backyard, join us for an evening of creativity as we transform your own sea shells with the art of decoupage. Refined through the art of decoupage, each piece is layered with delicate papers and sealed to create a polished, lasting finish. A simple coastal treasure, reimagined as art for a bedside table, coffee table or a special spot in your home!
Art Social admission includes complimentary wine (or a non-alcoholic beverage), and lite bites generously donated by Harbor Market & Kitchen in Sag Harbor.
Art Social is a monthly gathering where attendees enter into a supportive and judgment-free session of art/craftmaking and socializing. Bring your friends and expect to make new ones while tapping into your creative selves. Workshops will be led by experts in their practice, and the projects are designed to be easily and enjoyably accomplished by all skill levels.

Heidi Wright Stevens
Now based in East Hampton after years in Nairobi, Kenya, Heidi Wright Stevens brings an international perspective to her work. Her background includes founding sewing schools and supporting women through social entrepreneurship in Kenya and the Congo, as well as directing a small nonprofit in Bukavu, Congo. Returning to her early love of costume design and art, she now creates bespoke garments using upcycled vintage linens, transforming humble materials into pieces that celebrate sustainability, history, and design.
