Eco Art and Performance workshops: In this intergenerational workshop, facilitated by Maira Duarte from Dance to the People, participants will engage in the exploration of movement in nature and will manufacture wearable art pieces made of reused materials. Participants are welcome to bring materials they would like to create their pieces with, such as clothing in need of mending or objects that they have in excess (socks, plastic cutlery, cardboard, etc.). These workshops will explore the themes of land, water, and access to public natural spaces as well as the power of art and performance in manifesting the relationship between the individual, the community, and earth
