Join Lauren Shapiro for a workshop at the Vizcaya Village Farmers Market to create coral reef ceramic for The Blue Horizon Project.Come to Vizcaya Village on May 21 for a ceramics workshop unlike any other!
Celebrated artist Lauren Shapiro leads us in an interactive ceramics workshop where you can shape the future—both artistically and environmentally—with your own hands. The creations produced from this workshop will be fired, glazed, and affixed to a monumental, sinking arch sculpture, which time will transform into an artificial reef colonized by corals.
Shapiro aims to unite artists and audiences by engaging the community in creating ceramics to create this new large public sculpture as part of the Blue Horizon Project . With rising sea levels threatening coral reefs, the project aims to raise awareness about incorporating underwater environments into urban landscapes and promoting environmental sustainability through art and civic engagement.
The Blue Horizon Project is made possible with support from Anonymous Was a Woman in partnership with The New York Foundation for the Arts, Commissioner, and the Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau.
