Join us on Sunday, September 15 for three "Meet the Artist" programs. At 11:00AM, Dario Mohr will engage participants in a workshop and Happy Planting Day Ceremony that will incorporate drumming, seed paper greeting cards dedicated to deceased ancestors and the planting of African daisies in their honor. This "Meet the Artist" program is organized as part of Mohr’s monument Seeds of Kenya, a commission that inaugurates the newly renovated Glyndor Terrace Garden.

At 12:00PM, join Sunroom Project Space artists Soeun Bae and Jordany Genao in conversation with Curator of Visual Arts Rachel Raphaela Gugelberger. This discussion will focus on their distinct approaches to foregrounding the abstracted body through their use of synthetic and natural products, hypothetical mechanisms of care and pre-colonial rituals, and the divergent practices that value the integration of plants into our daily lives.
