How Will We Keep These Stories Alive?\n\n\n“The whole world will become a home to all of us\, or none of us can hope to live on it\, peacefully. But much of the American dream mistakenly supposes that\, like a tree\, we will grow and flourish\, standing in one place…”— June Jordan\, Moving Towards Home\nHow do we preserve and sustain the stories\, cultural memory\, and legacy of our community garden spaces and our communities’ relationships to public land? Join us to egage in community archiving through photo printing\, archiving\, and collage making using recycled garden and herbs materials.\n\n\n\nYour Facilitator: \nStephanie Alvarado (they/she) is a queer disabled antidisciplinary artist\, archivist\, poet\, curator\, and cultural organizer for 20 years. Through their Fotos y Recuerdos Archive project\, they have facilitated over 40 intergenerational workshops since 2020 on photo archiving and collective memory work as a form of resistance for queer\, trans\, and disabled people of color. Alvarado currently serves on the board of The Literary Freedom Project and is co-curator of “The World(s) She Made: Composing The Radical Lives of Kathleen Neal Cleaver” as part of The Last Hummingbird Collective.\n\n\n\nGrounded in the garden\, join us to critically and creatively engage in a diversity of artmaking techniques that open us up to deeper dialogue on place\, our relationships to our lived environments\, ecological concerns\, and contemporary culture. Learn meditative and mindful drawing\, printmaking and sculptural techniques\, scientific observation with plant portraiture\, nature-inspired intuitive artmaking and mixed media exploration\, and other various practices from botanical and ecologically-focused contemporary artists to create works of art to nurture your relationship to the garden. \nImmerse yourself in the learning garden\, greenhouse\, and across Riverbank State Park’s green roof overlooking the Hudson River to create artwork that is rooted in place and in partnership with plants. \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine. \nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces. \nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers. \nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells.

Together\, we’ll begin in the garden to create cyanotypes from plants gathered in the garden and transparencies of photos of the plants and people of our greenhouse community. Then\, we’ll be guided through the process of toning our cyanotypes to shift the colors and chemistries of our prints\, and work with plants like hibiscus\, lemon\, coffee\, teas\, marigolds\, and various kitchen scraps; reflecting on how these plants find their ways to our kitchen tables to our art\, collaborating us throughout the process. Join us to talk about the materiality of the plants we imbibe and create with. \nParticipants are invited to bring their own transparencies or pressed plants they feel akin to\, but a number of plants and already printed transparencies are also available. To print your own transparencies\, see this tutorial\, though many printing places will print for you as well.) \n\n\n\nPhoto Courtesey of artist Nadia Bongo.

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\n \nWhy do we grow the foods we do? How is culture tied to our local foodways and agricultural systems? What stories of nourishment are you hungry to tell? What creative acts are you being called to digest? In this weekly series\, explore various techniques and practices introduced by visiting artists who will lead us in expressing our relationship to food\, agriculture\, and the histories and stories that shape how we connect with our foodways. \nThrough various artmaking techniques like bookmaking\, printmaking\, collage\, sculpture\, natural-pigment making and painting\, alternative photography processes\, participants will create artwork that begins to answer the question: Where is the culture in our agricultural system? \nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. Explore your relationship to food and agriculture and the ways our food systems can connect us more deeply to our local ecosystems and communities.\n\n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine. \nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces. \nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible.
