Join interdisciplinary artists and educators Gyun Hur and Irisdelia Garcia in a visual workshop on family history, intergenerational stories, and community connection. Participants are invited to bring their families to engage with personal family archives of photos and draw new memories in tandem, prompted by conversations around lineage and relationship. This workshop encourages children and their families to shape familial histories and care for the importance of memorials through an act of remembering and honoring.

Please submit a family photo that honors your family history. For example, it can be a photo of your parents or grandparents when they were children. We will print out your submitted photos for the workshop. Crafting materials will be provided.

This workshop is part of Gyun Hur’s current project Our mothers, our water, our peace which is funded in part by Perennial Properties and Parsons School of Design, The New School.  

The workshop is open to and encouraged that all ages attend. RSVP required. Maximum attendance of 20.
