SUMMARY:Mapping the City
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hands-on family program that introduces young cartographers to the art and language of maps! In this interactive family program\, children will learn how to read and understand the key elements of maps\, including symbols\, compass roses\, landmarks\, and scale\, while discovering how these tools help us make sense of the places we live. Then\, using what they’ve learned\, children will create their own personal maps inspired by their neighborhoods\, favorite places\, and NYC landmarks.

SUMMARY:Urban Farm Cyanotypes at Earth Matter
DESCRIPTION:This immer­sive half-day work­shop invites par­tic­i­pants to explore cyan­otype print­mak­ing through hands-on activ­i­ties at the Earth Mat­ter Urban Farm on Gov­er­nors Island. The day begins with a brief intro­duc­tion to the site\, fol­lowed by an overview of cyan­otype mate­ri­als and tech­niques. A farm leader will pro­vide guid­ance on for­ag­ing pro­to­cols and farm guide­lines\, ground­ing par­tic­i­pants in the eco­log­i­cal con­text of the space. The group will then learn how to coat water­col­or paper using cyan­otype chem­istry\, expose prints out­doors\, and for­age botan­i­cals direct­ly from the farm. Each par­tic­i­pant will have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to make and process unique cyan­otype prints using their for­aged mate­ri­als to take home\, using both pre-coat­ed paper and the paper they coat­ed dur­ing class. This class com­bines ele­ments of print­mak­ing\, pho­tog­ra­phy\, paint­ing\, and cre­ative botany\, offer­ing a unique oppor­tu­ni­ty to con­nect with nature\, com­mu­ni­ty\, and alter­na­tive pho­to­graph­ic processes.
