Illuminating Birds Saturday Events Series with artist Nicole Rodrigues
Start Date: 9/16/2023Start Time: 2:00 PM
End Date: 9/16/2023End Time: 4:00 PM

Event Description

What knowledge do you think animals and plants hold?

Join us for a handmade "zine" workshop with visiting artist Nicole Rodrigues. We'll draw from the Academy's collection, examining different characteristics and personalities of birds and imagining how they communicate.

You'll create a short story reflecting on what we can learn from our avian counterparts and create your own handmade book focused on connections between birds, other animals and plants.

Nicole Rodrigues (they/them) is an artist and educator living in Philadelphia. Their work includes making comics, prints, illustrations, screen printed shirts and ceramics about the connections we have to nature and our journey to self-actualization.

Rodrigues’s work can provide visual insights on how people inhabit the world in their physical, mental and imaginary states while navigating destructive systems. Thank you to Partner and Sons for connecting the Academy with Nicole Rodrigues.
