Hello, and Happy Friday!
If you haven’t had a chance to see our November artist yet, be sure to visit before the month ends! The exhibit, Re-Membrance, is a space of precious impermanence without the oppressive concepts of linear time or borders, and honors Palestinian life and resistance, featuring works inspired by Palestinian dance, poetry, and symbolism. The artist, Peppa, is an interdisciplinary creator and educator whose practice weaves together sculpture, video, writing, herbalism, pedagogy, and community engagement. Learn more about the exhibition and the artist here.
And speaking of art, don't miss the new craft in the Teen Room, where you can create a stamped card. It’s a fun way to get creative and personalize something special! |
