FRI 6/13/25, ACCORD, NY

Join a small group who will gather at sculptor, Kieran Kinsella’s studio for a quiet morning of creative connection. We’ll hear the story behind his process as well as a demonstration of his techniques. Then we’ll tour the space where his one-of-a-kind pieces come to life, and share a light lunch together. The session will be structured around engaging in a lively group conversation with Kieran on topics including the nature of working in creative fields, the contrast between hand work and digital design and fabrication and the possibilities and limitations of each.

This is part of our new In Practice series: exploring spaces, people and ideas that illuminate how creative work and careers actually get built in the Hudson Valley.
