The Soft Opening of The Clemente and The Flux Factory Rhizome Project which includes The Artists Reception and The Art of land: Cultural Workers and The Community Land Trust Movement with MoMA PS1 of two panel discussions exploring how cultural workers have been involved in re-envisioning the use and stewardship of land in New York City.

The Clemente and The Flux Factory Rhizome Project present visionary work from a range of artists working in and through collective action, creating solidarity networks that facilitate different ways of being with one another. We asked the artists to respond to the following set of questions: How, as a collective, do you center the work of building and sustaining communities? In what ways does your collective support others to surThrive? How have you activated creativity in your world? Who are the people of your collective and community?

Ceremony is a an interactive sound experience for releasing limitations and cultivating inner abundance. In this workshop we will start to disentangle from the ideas of “self” given to us by the oppressive systems we live within and begin tapping into our own gold.

Join us for an artist talk and performance with Caroline Garcia and the Chrysalis Kali Collective. This performance opens up a deeper dive into the potentials of Kali when one is not operating in the reactive modes of fight, flight, or freeze. It offers slowness as an aesthetic platform for somatic curiosity and assessment, as well as offensive drills and combinations to demonstrate the importance of repetition and practice, all useful techniques in the spectrum of healing collective trauma.

Join us on Sunday February 19th for an afternoon conversation with Yon Mi Kim and Ariel Mercado two of the founding members of The Salon a New York City based cooperative comprised of working class artists of color. Together they will discuss the content of their featured work within the "The Voice of Many, The Voice of One: Collective Actions for Resistance and Mutual Aid" show and the urgency of The Salon's "The Autonomous Artist Manifesto" co-written together.
