Join us for an open art-jam and chit chat this Autumn
About this Event
To become feral means escaping domestication. We often hear it used to describe house cats that have become wild, but what would it look like to imagine our own futures in this way?
What could it look like for us to escape the civilized, colonized, domesticated lives we lead? What does your instinct look like, intuition feel like, imagination move like - when you’re wild?
Each week we will be discussing a different revolutionary / rewilding concept while making art with one another as we process.
Connect into the Mycelium, make art, chit chat the big things, and plan the fall of mankind this Autumn
