SUMMARY:Art in the Garden
DESCRIPTION:Cultivate creativity\, curiosity\, & settle into the restorative power of artmaking in the greenhouse and garden.\n\n\nCombine the art and science of observation in weekly artmaking inspired by plants in the greenhouse and garden.\nLearn meditative and mindful drawing\, printmaking and sculptural techniques\, scientific observation with plant portraiture\, and new practices from botanical and ecologically-focused contemporary artists to create works of art to celebrate the plants and flowers you feel most connected to. Immerse yourself in the learning garden\, greenhouse\, and across Riverbank State Park’s green roof overlooking the Hudson River to create artwork that is rooted in place and in partnership with plants.\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers.\nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells. If you have needs not addressed here\, please reach out to Mallory Craig at mcraig@thehort.org.

SUMMARY:Art and AgriCulture
DESCRIPTION:What are the food stories that most urgently need to be shared?\n\n\n“Another thing we lost is culture. . . look at the word agriculture. We lost that connection. And so now it’s going back to the culture of agriculture. Why do we grow the food that we do?” – Karen Washington\nWhy do we grow the foods we do? How is culture tied to our local foodways and agricultural systems? What stories of nourishment are you hungry to tell? What creative acts are you being called to digest?\nIn this weekly series\, explore various techniques and practices introduced by visiting artists who will lead us in expressing our relationship to food\, agriculture\, and the histories and stories that shape how we connect with our foodways.\nThrough various artmaking techniques like bookmaking\, printmaking\, collage\, sculpture\, natural-pigment making and painting\, alternative photography processes\, participants will create artwork that begins to answer the question: Where is the culture in agriculture?\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse. Explore your relationship to food and agriculture and the ways these systems can connect us more deeply to our local ecosystems and communities.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible.

SUMMARY:Recipes and Rituals for Community Care
DESCRIPTION:We heal together in our kitchens\, gardens\, and shared spaces.\n\n\nWhat does it mean to heal in community? What does it feel like when we extend care to ourselves and the collective? How do plants and our local ecologies care for us? How can we care for the plants and local ecologies in return?\nWeave in rituals and recipes into both your own self-care and community care practices through weekly explorations in herbal arts\, somatic movement in the greenhouse and garden\, folk remedies\, and other wild-crafts and meditative activities that foster a deeper connection to plants to care for the body\, mental health\, and the people you move with.\nEach week\, be guided by a guest herbalist\, healing artist\, or wellness practitioner who will help you create your own toolkit and apothecary for self and communal care.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible.

Immerse yourself in the learning garden\, greenhouse\, and across Riverbank State Park’s green roof overlooking the Hudson River to create artwork that is rooted in place and in partnership with plants.\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers.\nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells. If you have needs not addressed here\, please reach out to Mallory Craig at mcraig@thehort.org.

SUMMARY:Art and AgriCulture
DESCRIPTION:What are the food stories that most urgently need to be shared?\n\n\n“Another thing we lost is culture. . . look at the word agriculture. We lost that connection. And so now it’s going back to the culture of agriculture. Why do we grow the food that we do?” – Karen Washington\nWhy do we grow the foods we do? How is culture tied to our local foodways and agricultural systems? What stories of nourishment are you hungry to tell? What creative acts are you being called to digest?\nIn this weekly series\, explore various techniques and practices introduced by visiting artists who will lead us in expressing our relationship to food\, agriculture\, and the histories and stories that shape how we connect with our foodways.\nThrough various artmaking techniques like bookmaking\, printmaking\, collage\, sculpture\, natural-pigment making and painting\, alternative photography processes\, participants will create artwork that begins to answer the question: Where is the culture in agriculture?\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse.

SUMMARY:Art and AgriCulture
DESCRIPTION:What are the food stories that most urgently need to be shared?\n\n\n“Another thing we lost is culture. . . look at the word agriculture. We lost that connection. And so now it’s going back to the culture of agriculture. Why do we grow the food that we do?” – Karen Washington\nWhy do we grow the foods we do? How is culture tied to our local foodways and agricultural systems? What stories of nourishment are you hungry to tell? What creative acts are you being called to digest?\nIn this weekly series\, explore various techniques and practices introduced by visiting artists who will lead us in expressing our relationship to food\, agriculture\, and the histories and stories that shape how we connect with our foodways.\nThrough various artmaking techniques like bookmaking\, printmaking\, collage\, sculpture\, natural-pigment making and painting\, alternative photography processes\, participants will create artwork that begins to answer the question: Where is the culture in agriculture?\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse. Explore your relationship to food and agriculture and the ways these systems can connect us more deeply to our local ecosystems and communities.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers.\nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells.

SUMMARY:Recipes and Rituals for Community Care
DESCRIPTION:We heal together in our kitchens\, gardens\, and shared spaces.\n\n\nWhat does it mean to heal in community? What does it feel like when we extend care to ourselves and the collective?

SUMMARY:Art in the Garden
DESCRIPTION:Cultivate creativity\, curiosity\, & settle into the restorative power of artmaking in the greenhouse and garden.\n\n\nCombine the art and science of observation in weekly artmaking inspired by plants in the greenhouse and garden.\nLearn meditative and mindful drawing\, printmaking and sculptural techniques\, scientific observation with plant portraiture\, and new practices from botanical and ecologically-focused contemporary artists to create works of art to celebrate the plants and flowers you feel most connected to. Immerse yourself in the learning garden\, greenhouse\, and across Riverbank State Park’s green roof overlooking the Hudson River to create artwork that is rooted in place and in partnership with plants.\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible.

What creative acts are you being called to digest?\nIn this weekly series\, explore various techniques and practices introduced by visiting artists who will lead us in expressing our relationship to food\, agriculture\, and the histories and stories that shape how we connect with our foodways.\nThrough various artmaking techniques like bookmaking\, printmaking\, collage\, sculpture\, natural-pigment making and painting\, alternative photography processes\, participants will create artwork that begins to answer the question: Where is the culture in agriculture?\nThis is a free drop-in program. Come to every class to build on your skill or come to one or two that you are available for. This class will end in a culminating Community Winter Show to exhibit your work in our greenhouse. Explore your relationship to food and agriculture and the ways these systems can connect us more deeply to our local ecosystems and communities.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers.\nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells. If you have needs not addressed here\, please reach out to Mallory Craig at mcraig@thehort.org.

SUMMARY:Recipes and Rituals for Community Care
DESCRIPTION:We heal together in our kitchens\, gardens\, and shared spaces.\n\n\nWhat does it mean to heal in community? What does it feel like when we extend care to ourselves and the collective? How do plants and our local ecologies care for us? How can we care for the plants and local ecologies in return?\nWeave in rituals and recipes into both your own self-care and community care practices through weekly explorations in herbal arts\, somatic movement in the greenhouse and garden\, folk remedies\, and other wild-crafts and meditative activities that foster a deeper connection to plants to care for the body\, mental health\, and the people you move with.\nEach week\, be guided by a guest herbalist\, healing artist\, or wellness practitioner who will help you create your own toolkit and apothecary for self and communal care.\n\n\n  \n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible.
