Waging Peace at The Plant: Pods of Peace

How can we both speak with and listen to each other about celebrating and working towards Peace in Tallahassee?  During this workshop, we will collectively create “peace pods” out of paper mache using local and national newspapers, balloons, and other inflatable balls. We will paper mache with newspaper to emphasize what is going on in our community and create a space for the articles we want to read in our paper. While our peace pods are drying, we will create a work(s) that expands the dialogue about our important topics and expresses the news/peace you would like to see in our local paper. This can be a written article, a drawing, a painting, a collage, a song, or poem (or whatever you craft) and will be put into a peace pod when they are dry. The artworks created will be exhibited at The Plant this May 2018 along with other works of art created during the Waging Peace at The Plant Workshop Series.
