Join the Meshwork collective for a site-specific community arts workshop making connections with water from the personal to the cosmic scale. Writing, movement, and sensory exercises will ground us in this site’s history and water’s hidden role in shaping our world. Please register in advance at https://withfriends.co/event/23024877/meshwork_water
The event is free, with an optional donation. All materials are provided; please dress for the weather as this is an outdoor event. We welcome participants ages 10 and up. The Ben Cardin Pavilion is ADA accessible via a paved path from the Winans Meadow parking lot at 4500 N. Franklintown Rd. All activities can be adapted according to participants' needs and preferences. The park has an accessible portable toilet located near the parking lot.
About Meshwork Collective:
Meshwork is a metamorphizing group of interdisciplinary artists, scholars, and activists based in Baltimore. Since 2013, we have collaborated in many formats, from curating and performing, to writing and scholarship, to mutual aid and support. We are interested in embodied knowledge-making and mediumship. That is, how do we understand what is true, and build a shared world that holds a plurality of truths? In our varied practices, we focus on using the body, intuition, ritual, and intersubjectivity to connect with sources of knowledge beyond what is codified in dominant knowledge systems. This is inherently a collective, occult practice, grounded in communion with the living and the dead, and with histories that reside in materials and places.
