Our Fall/Winter workshop series continues in the new year as we gear up for Ice Follies in February! The workshops will start up again on January 10 and run until February 9 following the same schedule as before. After Ice Follies, they will start back up and run from February 28 to March 9.
Newcomers are always welcome!
After what seems like forever, we are extremely excited to get back to engaging, making art, and sharing good food with community through our new Fall/Winter Workshop series! The workshops are part of our current project, ALL MY R(el)ATIONS, which explores and examines the themes of relationality and resource capacity/scarcity, and through them we will be gathering, creating, and developing stories, installation materials, and performance pieces that will be presented at Ice Follies in February 2023. The workshops are free to attend and no experience is necessary.
