2023 Stafford Ellison Wright Black Alumni Scholar-in-Residence Special Workshop

Space is limited - RSVP here

This workshop takes inspiration from Ashon Crawley's Lonely Letters and loss.nothing.memorial.

How can altar-making, as an embodied activity, rather than an empty routine or an amplification of dogma, provide a remedy to the numbness characterizing much of our present day?
