rest in pieces: a funeral dinner for our unfinished projects
Hosted by Making Space and Take Home Collective, at aceartinc.
SEPTEMBER 7th
Time: 5-7 PM
On this evening we honour our unfinished projects (may they rest in pieces). We’ll begin with a walk from aceartinc. down to The Forks National Historic Site, led by Riel Starr. Riel will prompt us to consider the past and present uses of this land, and the relationship between the Métis and this sacred confluence. Upon arrival back at the gallery, we will craft odes to our project ideas that never materialized. Food & refreshments provided, join us for the funerals of our unfinished ideas – gone, but never forgotten.
This event is a closed BIPOC space, in line with the work of Making Space & Take Home Collective. All racialized artists are welcome to share space, food, craft, and (optionally) share.
TakeHome BIPOC Arts House is a space for exhibitions, residencies, presentations and creative production for BIPOC artists in Winnipeg. In between exhibitions, TakeHome utilizes the space as a Community Studio. Where BIPOC artists can work, share and participate in various workshops and programs.
