Sunday Funday: March 8


Thank you for joining us on Sunday!!!! We had so much fun in the sun!




Jenn, Crystal and Sauha collected materials from the site to lead participants in making ephemeral art.



While they are making these patterns, Jenn and Sauha are evaluating the materials on site for potential paper-making materials.





People really enjoyed the refreshing nettle tea!


Sauha's so sweet that this honeybee made friends with her!


She landed and groomed the Berberis pollen out of her hairy eyes from a nearby bush.


Participants stitched the connecting "hyphae" between hearts.


This is a cloth I dyed with the roots of invasive yellow flag iris and rusty metal from my garden. The hearts are cut out of a rescued dress from a thrift shop. I love taking apart abandoned clothing and using it to repair other clothing and make art!

The mycellium under the earth are a network of small threads called "hyphae" that help plants receive nutrients from the soil. This is a metaphor for the beneficial connections among caring humans.



The drawing and painting tables were very popular and inspired such beautiful work !




Many of the adults and children are fascinated by the air traffic generated overhead by the nearby airport.

Crystal led us in a giggling session of laughter yoga: good for the soul and body! Thanks everyone for a beautiful day of connecting with nature through art.
