Crafting Community Ferment: an IA Happening

Monday June 12, 5:00-7:00pm at Imagining America (207 3rd St, Suite 120, Davis CA 95616) Join the Hyphae Collective to assemble a community-sourced quilt made of materials created over six months with different community members using fermented materials. Refreshments provided!

The Hypha Collective, a Davis-based collaboratory, brings together artists, thinkers, designers, and community members to explore cultural and artistic practices that involve fungi and fermentation. For Crafting Community Ferment, we will create a crowd-sourced quilt made of kombucha leather, sourdough hankies, and more. Through this project, we invite community members into the artistic process to co-create both the materials for the quilt and the quilt itself. In the process, we will engage in conversation and learn about fermentation and arts/crafts practices, and their local ecologies.
