Trash-Craft Therapy Night with Autumn!

Join Autumn + the EcoQueers for an adult trash-craft night at the Lake Worth WaterKeeper Base Camp.  Release your inner trash monster and create something spooky out of our discards - Halloween decorations, costume accessories, or art, the choice is yours. Bring along some refuse from your house for supplies: water bottles, boxes, old toys or office supplies, anything goes! We'll have materials available as well. Bring a snack to share too if you'd like! Autumn will be there to facilitate the festivities.

All bodies and identities welcome.

$10 donation. Venmo: @Autumn-Kioti or cash at the door

No one will be turned away for lack of funds.

About Autumn (they/them, she/her):

The creation and transmission of a narrative is integral to Autumn's work as an artist, Master Naturalist and storyteller; the best kind of "going viral." Using inspirations from nature, animal documentaries and scientific studies, their own search for identity and community, and processes including botanical and traditional printmaking, collagraph, cyanotype, pen and ink, non-traditional watercolor techniques, found object art, they create two and three dimensional art and installation, as well as programming and performances. Past artist residencies include the NYC Audubon Society, the Santa Fe Art Institute, At Monastery Italia (Italy), and more. Autumn currently travels South Florida with Wildness is Necessary, their art, nature and justice program for all ages. It is their wildest hope that the narratives they create bring viewers and participants closer to an understanding that humans are of nature and not separate from it; dismantling the idea of the scala naturae, and planting our feet firmly on the Earth beside our non-human brethren (and maybe creating a little magic and silliness too).

Autumn's work is currently on display in The Thread That Connects Us at Studio 18 in the Pines.
