In this sketch-inspired workshop, participants will make an accordion-style sketchbook that you will fill with ideas and drawings about your dreams for the future of our city. In the Anaheim of the future (or whatever city you live in) what buildings, programs, or institutions would you have? For example, if your city had more funding, you might include a shelter for unhoused folx, a community center, community garden, etc. If you can dream it, you can sketch it!
This workshop is created and delivered by Adriana Martinez @sketchbookjunkie and is inspired by Muzeo’s current exhibition Origins & Displacements, Vol. 2 by William Camargo @billythecamera.
