On Sunday, February 12 from 3-4PM, join us for a free, hands-on collage-making workshop with Sarah Lawson (Fall 2022 Artist-in-Residence). During the workshop, we'll collectively work on paper collages (in the tradition of exquisite corpse) as a means of exploring how the themes of interdependence and community are critical aspects of the ways we experience and think about the climate crisis, death, and grief.
All materials will be supplied but please feel free to bring additional collage ephemera, as desired. Advance registration is required.
Please note that this workshop is intended for mature teens and adults as it explores concepts of death and grief and may not be age appropriate for children.
Sarah Lawson is the Fall 2022 Artist-in-Residence. A writer and visual artist, Sarah plans to combine the creative practices of collage and zine-making along with interviews and workshops to explore how the climate crisis is impacting individual and collective ideas of death and dying during their Research Residency. Learn more about Sarah and their work here.
