 ART AT WORK SYMPOSIUM EXPLORES CONCERNS FOR WATER, HOW TO GROW RURAL PROSPERITY. Paonia, Colo. -- Elsewhere Studios hosts a Symposium of Inspired: Art at Work, showcasing works of local and visiting artists inviting inquiries, “What is your relationship to this land? How can we create a resilient economy that's good for the people and the land?”--specific yet universal questions. The event takes place Friday-Sunday Aug. 24-26th, 2018, at The Paradise Theater, and Blue Sage Center for the Arts, in Paonia. Event speakers include Robin Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass, Woody Tasch of Slow Money on how to put power back into the hands of food growers. Food writer Eugenia Bone on ‘The Microbiome of the Garden,’ Brianne Cohen ‘Climate Justice and Forensic Aesthetics,’ ‘Reading the River,’ by Basia Irland, and public lands advocate Regina Lopez Whiteskunk on sources of inspiration. Opportunities to experience the flavors and innovators of the North Fork interspersed. North Fork Valley is an area experiencing increased pressure for oil and gas development, and also holds the highest per capita of organic farming operations outside of California. Inspired:Art at Work’s art-lens initiative aims to move beyond community divisions, and invites local dialogue on topics related to prosperity and sense of place in the North Fork Valley, health of our watershed, resource use, and neighbors creating resilience. Elsewhere Studios offers time and space for creators of all sorts to make new work. Awarded a grant in 2017 via Colorado’s Arts In Society focus on arts for social action, Inspired:Art at Work is their first dedicated socially engaged art project.
