Found Poems Along the Rio Grande
The first workshop at Horizon (i am within a vast structure in my dreams) at Alpaca Gallery, curated by Mallika Singh.
//
Join alma valdez-garcia and imogen smith for an afternoon of group reading, writing, and weaving on Saturday, June 6 from 2-4pm.
Taking a selection of poems from Etel Adnan, Jimmy Santiago Baca, Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge, CAConrad, Dolores Dorante, June Jordan, NH Pritchard, Daisy Zamora as found materials, alongside our own writing & items foraged along the Rio Grande, each person will leave with both a new weaving and poem, made on a loom with materials foraged along the Rio Grande.
In cutting up and rearranging words from other thinkers (alongside our own), our hope is that the process will offer up new possibilities of speaking towards our collective histories, dreams, and often overlapping forms of witnessing.
Bring along items to add to your weaving (fabric, plants, poems, receipts, etc.)
Some willingness required.
