SUMMARY:Art in the Garden
DESCRIPTION:Flax: Foodways\, Fiber Art\, & Ancestral Agricultural Histories in Cloth (Part 1) \nJoin us for a free two-part workshop on flax\, a flower grown for food and fiber. You’re welcome to attend one session or both. \nIn the first\, you’ll learn about the plant’s ecology and ethnobotanical history. You’ll taste a few simple recipes and hear how they tie to ancestral foodways and nutrition. Then you’ll turn its raw material into handmade sheets. You’ll lay the fresh pulls over armatures to build paper assemblages. \nThe second session follows directly after. It picks up the farming story and turns to linen. This event is part of Art in the Garden. Critically and creatively engage with a diversity of artmaking techniques that open you up to deeper dialogue on place and your lived environments. \nFACILITATOR \nMallory is an artist and landworker who works with plants and people to explore care and repair. Through papermaking\, art journaling\, circlekeeping\, gardening\, and plantcraft\, she invites others to explore with her how to be in relationship with ecological loss and the grief of climate chaos through rituals of attention\, care\, and stewardship. \nACCESSIBILITY \nThe kitchen/classroom is wheelchair accessible; with advance notice we can add a mat path across the greenhouse’s pebbled ground (garden entrance has a small raised threshold; garden paths are grass).\nTables adjust height; backless benches/stools available.\nKitchen is shared—we avoid peanuts but can’t guarantee a nut-free space; water provided in refillable pitchers.\nFirst aid on-site; nearest AED is one building away.\nNearest restrooms are ~1 min walk; a gender-neutral restroom is available by key from staff.\nNot a scent-free space (essential oils used in class)\, though we ventilate and welcome masking/distancing.\nOther access needs?
