SUMMARY:Creative Residents Taha Ebrahimi and Allison Kudla Workshop
DESCRIPTION:November Creative Residents Taha Ebrahimi and Allison Kudla Workshop\nJoin collaborating Creative Residents Taha Ebrahimi (author of upcoming book Street Trees of Seattle) and artist Allison Kudla on an in-depth guided tour and treasure hunt for leaves in the peak of their autumnal beauty that will become the raw materials for a collaborative art piece. \nThursday\, November 9\, 11 AM-1 PM \nMaps have long been used to shape dominant perspectives of places\, spaces and people. By design\, maps also discount the intangibles of lived experience and biases in the practice of cartography and data collection itself. Participants will be provided a hand-drawn map and a leaf collection bag\, inviting them to take a break from their digital world to embrace an analog\, inexact approach to finding and identifying specific trees at the Bloedel Reserve. \nThe fallen leaves collected by participants will then be used as the material for a companion piece created by Allison Kudla. She will share a method that intersects computer-aided design\, laser cutting and traditional leaf preservation techniques to create a collective representation of the algorithmic design of leaf venation patterns from the collected leaves. Each journey becomes the material of the work\, challenging the notion of uniform representations of time and experience. \n$10 with admission to the Reserve \nMeet at the Arrival Garden for your walk. \nTICKETS

Wilhoit\nTuesday\, September 12\, 1-5 PM; In-person at Bloedel Reserve.\nMember $40\nGuest $52 \nIn this BARN creative retreat convening on the beautiful Bloedel Reserve land\, participants will be nourished through guided time on the land\, poetry\, a few short meditations\, writing prompts\, and free-writing. About half of our time together will be dedicated to roaming the Reserve’s landscape for inspiration\, calm\, and nourishment. Retreatants will also have time to work quietly on individual creative projects (manuscript\, poetry\, collage\, painting…) that they bring with them. The retreat facilitator will also be available for one-on-one support to anyone desiring professional feedback on their creative works in progress. Participants should bring to the workshop: snacks/lunch\, their creative project/supplies\, a few pens\, a journal (preferably unlined)\, weather appropriate clothing and gear\, water bottle\, as well as an open heart and mind. This retreat will draw from guided experiences on the Reserve grounds to gain inspiration for creative pursuit. \nUsing TEALarbor stories’ signature practices and processes (rooted in Spiritual Ecology\, overcoming creative blocks\, and inner/outer landscape exploration)\, participants will have an opportunity to engage with their work and play through new perspectives.
