Workshop description:

These Streets Are Your Streets: Municipal Memories, 3:30 - 5:00pm

Please join co-facilitators Andrea Zeffiro and Jelena Vermilion for a collaging workshop. Drawing on themes of community, connection(s), and memory, this workshop guides participants to produce art that reflects and represents their experiences of urban landscapes and their relationship to the land, building/structures, and streets. This workshop offers an opportunity for participants to meditate on greater ideas of belonging, public space, and understanding of who belongs or is allowed to access or exist in public spaces. Make art that reflects your lived experience.

WORKSHOP SPACES ARE LIMITED, PARTICIPANTS MUST REGISTER FOR WORKSHOP TICKET AS WELL AS GENERAL TICKET
