Gesture and the Human Form
The artist-led workshop produced in collaboration with Rohi’s Readery will begin with a short powerpoint presentation discussing various ways artists use the human body to communicate emotions and ideas through non-verbal means; artists depict and pose the body to communicate joy, fear, excitement, triumph, and many other states of being. Participants will contemplate and respond to the communicative potential of the human form; participants will be asked to pose their bodies, change their expression, and even consider their surroundings (lighting, background, dress) to communicate an idea/emotion. These poses will be photographed and subsequently shared with the group for discussion.
This class is open to adults and children ages 6+.

Reimagining Public Art
In this artist-led workshop produced in collaboration with Rohi’s Readery, participants will be asked to reimagine existing public artworks whose content is contested for one reason or another. During our current moment, historic monuments honoring the Confederacy, Christopher Columbus, and others have been the subject of debate. In response, some monuments have been removed, while others have been addressed through art interventions. One example is the Robert E. Lee Monument in Richmond Virginia. Before its final removal it became not only a site of protest but a myriad of creative works of art including dance performances, projected installations, and graffiti. Participants will be asked to consider how they might recontextualize an existing work of art that they find problematic and discuss as a group.
This class is open to adults and children ages 8+.
