Saturday, June 13th: Power Object Sculpture Workshop - 2:00 to 3:30 pm
@Unison Arts

Saturday, July 18th: (Im)Possible Demands ritual procession to the Wallkill and event - 12:00 to 1:00 pm

Inspired by ancient rituals and contemporary political unrest, this workshop invites participants to sculpt small clay objects that represent a need or desire for transformative change, working in kinship with the Wallkill River and the more-than-human world.

Each sculpture will be molded to create a power object.

On July 18, a procession will lead people to the Wallkill, where they can cast a power object into the river in a gesture of collective intention and possibility. Each object will flow through the Wallkill to the Rondout, the Hudson, the Atlantic, and beyond, summoning the unseen forces that encircle the planet.

No prior experience is needed—only a deep desire for change.

Participation in the July 18 event is optional.

Sculptures will be available to take home after July 17.
