Come explore the textures that surround us as we use non-traditional and found objects for printmaking. Learn the basics of printmaking technique and vocabulary while gaining a whole new perspective on everyday objects. Among other materials, we will be printing from fruits, vegetables, metal and foam. This experience will open your eyes to the printable potential of the world around us as well as give you space and opportunity to create something truly unique.
This event celebrates the generative connections between climate, queerness and performance, and has creative fun with unlikely cross pollinations. Performers will reimagine drag as an interspecies affair, invite you to a KiKi with kin you didn’t even know you had, stage a special kind of Karaoke inspired by the 400,000 million year history of the horseshoe crab, engage you in a specially commissioned act that brings a queer lens to the Maryland Climate Plan, and much more!

Black Assets was born Ashley Yates from Itta Bena, Mississippi. She is the representation of the new era of fun, soul, rock and RnB music. We welcome Black Assets back to The Patterson for a headline gig, and the first in her new series "The Soul Stage" highlighting the future of Soul music in Baltimore by showcasing new and upcoming soul, funk, indie artists from the Baltimore scene. Soul music changed the world! Artists like Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Dwele, Musiq Soul Child, India Arie, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross and more touched the hearts of countless people around the globe for decades, also making a huge impact in hip hop music via sample culture. It brought harmonies and rifts to rock music, and has been the soundtrack to many of our favorite movies. With the impact that it has had on her life, Black Assets wants to bring the soul back to the Charm City and trail blaze a lane for it here in Baltimore by amplifying critical local voices.
