Constellation Collective: Raw Material Lab

This project will integrate the artisan skills of constellation members that explore the process of raw materials of the soil into an experience of resilience, skill-creation, and remembering for black community. Due to COVID, we seek to offer educational and experiential programming in the online realm and in-person (distanced) in outdoor spaces and farms that support black liberation. We will explore fiber, hides, dyes, and woodworking through hands-on processing and cultural context of each craft.
