SUMMARY:Coastal Conversations: Seaweed Color Theory
DESCRIPTION:Coastal Conversations: Seaweed Color Theory \nWhat colors do you see in seaweed? What might we discover by looking more closely? \nJoin artist-educator Mai Ryuno of Play Full Ground and ecologist Emily Gottlieb for a Coastal Conversations gathering exploring seaweed through observation\, conversation\, and creative inquiry. \nWe’ll meet along the coast to spend time with seaweed where it grows\, noticing its colors\, textures\, and variations. Drawing on Emily’s ecological perspective and our own ways of seeing\, we’ll explore how looking at the same subject through different lenses can open up new questions and possibilities. \nThis gathering is the first part of a two-part exploration. In a follow-up session at Play Full Ground\, we’ll continue our inquiry by experimenting with making color from seaweed. \nNo prior art or science experience is needed. Bring your curiosity and wear or bring a color that tells a story! \nSuggested contribution: $75 \nSpace is limited. Please RSVP to join us.

SUMMARY:Coastal Conversations: Between Tide and Paper
DESCRIPTION:What happens when art\, ecology\, and curiosity meet? \nCoastal Conversations is an evolving series of studio gatherings exploring connections between art\, creativity\, place\, and different ways of seeing the world. \nOur first gathering\, Between Tide and Paper\, is created in collaboration with ecologist/artist Emily Gottlieb.\nTogether\, we will explore the coastal environment through seaweed pressing\, observation\, conversation\, and creative making. \nRather than a traditional class or lecture\, Coastal Conversations is an open space for sharing perspectives\, asking questions\, and exploring what can emerge when different ways of knowing come together. \nThrough hands-on experimentation and conversation\, we will consider how paying attention to the natural world can inspire new ideas\, creative processes\, and ways of seeing our surroundings. \nWhether you are an artist\, educator\, scientist\, student\, nature lover\, or simply curious\, you are welcome to join us. \nThursday\, August 20\, 5:00–7:00 PM\nSunday\, August 30\, 2:00–4:00 PM \nFree and walk-in welcome.\nRSVP: https://www.playfullground.com/#events \nNo previous art or science experience is needed.\nCome curious.
