Lose Your Phone Find Yourself is a 3-part workshop created in response to real life. Have you ever had a whole afternoon stolen by doom scrolling? Ever left your phone at home and felt a strange sense of relief? Join artist Wes Bruce in this embodied series and enter this world of questions. Sessions will include making sculpture, reading / writing poetry, conversation, earth meditations, immersive installation, etc. We'll use art as a pathway home: to return back to our bodies, hearts, spirits and minds. Join this unusual workshop if you're feeling a bit lost, because, "When you're lost, it's the best time to be found..." - Emily Winfield Martin.
This series will be presented in two versions: one for teens and one for adults. Each group will work separately for their first two sessions (Tuesdays, May 12th and 19th from from 3:45-5:45pm for the TEENS). The two groups will then join together for the final class and installation day on Friday, May 29th from 3:45-5:45pm.
