What if we could grow art? In this experimental two-part workshop, you'll explore pattern-making, digital fabrication, and plant development to create a self-assembled tapestry made from grass-roots.


Learn about tiling patterns and design a 3D-printed template for your tapestry. Then, assemble your template and plant your grass seeds above it. Watch the roots follow your pattern and intertwine, creating a self-woven tapestry!


Participants must be available for both sessions. No prior experience necessary.


This is an 18+ workshop.


$80/person


Workshop Dates: August 4 & 11
