Join us for the 1st workshop of a 3-part free art-making workshop series. In the series, we will be creating projects inspired by our current exhibition, Flesh of the Forest, curated by Tiffany E. Barber. The exhibition features nine contemporary artists from the African diaspora who engage with the forest as a rich, multilayered site of history, memory, sensation, and feeling through sculpture, painting, film, and installation. 

Workshop #1: Bookbinding & Natural Ink
In this workshop, we will use the saddle-stitch method to combine papers of various textures to create our own unique books. To adorn our homemade books, we will make inks from natural materials such as dried hibiscus, turmeric, and purple cabbage. 

This is part of a FREE event series and all supplies are provided by OXY ARTS. Please RSVP above.
