Art & AgriCulture

March 30, 2023 @ 7:00pm - 8:00pm

Free
What are the food stories that most urgently need to be shared?

“Another thing we lost is culture. . . look at the word agriculture. We lost that connection. And so now it’s going back to the culture of agriculture. Why do we grow the food that we do?” – Karen Washington

Why do we grow the foods we do? How is culture tied to our local foodways and agricultural systems? In this weekly series, participants will create works of art using different artmaking techniques with visiting artists to create works of art celebrating food and agricultural practices, as well as the histories and stories that shape them. Through various techniques like bookmaking, printmaking, collage, sculpture, and alternative photography processes, participants will create artwork that begins to answer the question: Where is the culture in agriculture?
