Prints and Poetry for Celebrating Species “Delisted” from Endangered Species Status
Type: Presentation
Description:
Explore our amazing Earth in arts-based activities that engage your senses and your mind. View a Science on a Sphere (SOS) projection, featuring species recently removed from the endangered species list. Participate in an interactive workshop to create your own linocut prints on a small hand-powered printing press and write poems to celebrate that delisted species. Experienced printmaker Samantha Earley and experienced public poetry artist Nancy DeJoy will create images for the projection and help all participants create their own pieces of art to take home. Explore our amazing Earth with this and other arts-based activities.
