This offering correlates to the weaving installation: Time Not Braid on view (8/12/23-9/6/23), which Pedal will activate with a short performance as the workshop begins.please bring plastic shopping bags, scissors, and something comfortable to sit on
6:00pm : Garden Poetry Walk with Milo Whitson – Together we will explore the garden and engage all of our senses, gathering observations to weave into a poem. Participants have the option of reciting their poem to be digitally recorded and arranged into a sound piece of garden sounds and voices.
6:30pm : Fall Planting with Intention with Adrienne Dixon – Focusing on adaptive reuse I will create pots using scraps of building materials. Participants will have the opportunity to pot fall seasonal plant seeds, along with slips of newsprint where they can write their intentions for the season.
