WRAPture Woodblock Workshop @ The Line Hotel, Adams Morgan Community Center | Washington | District of Columbia | United States

Please come make art and learn about climate change!  This is a special workshop in Adams Morgan at the new community center in the Line Hotel (enter to the right of the main hotel entrance).

Bangladeshi-American artist and climate activist Monica Jahan Bose is launching a new temporary public art display and needs your help to create it!  Monica and her team are working on WRAPture, a public art installation that will wrap 5 buildings in Historic Anacostia on April 4, April 14, and May 9. Monica is collaborating with community members to create these saris. 

Monica seeks paid assistants* (over age 14) to sign up for the workshops.  Participants will learn woodblock printing, create artwork that will be displayed, and discuss and learn about the effects of climate change.  All ages and genders welcome.  All spaces and accessible by wheelchair/walker.  We will provide sign language interpreters and other interpreters whenever possible.

*Spots are LIMITED. We will be working on 2 saris per workshop and only have spots for 12-15 people each time. Please email storytellingwithsaris@gmail.com if you need to release your reservation. Please must arrive on time and fully participate.
