DESCRIPTION:To make sure the time\, location\, and other aspects have not c
 hanged\, or to share this event with your friends\, please see https://app
 s.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/Detail.aspx?si=32049\n\nSuminagashi\, or "
 floating ink\," is an ancient Japanese printmaking technique that dates ba
 ck to the 12th century. Sumi ink is made of soot from pine trees it natura
 lly floats on water. \n\nJapanese monks used suminagashi as a meditative p
 ractice to create beautiful patterns on paper for scrolls and prints. The 
 key is forming a bond with water in a manner that is more of a collaborati
 on than a controlled technique. \n\nCommissioned by Alexandria's Office of
  the Arts\, printmaker Sto Len will give an introduction to his own water-
 art practice then teach participants how to make prints using this process
 \, while discussing our relationship to water.\n\nSpace is limited to 20 h
 ouseholds in the City of Alexandria. Registered participants will be provi
 ded with an art kit that includes some of the supplies needed to participa
 te. One kit per household. \n\nRegistered participants will receive the pa
 rticipation link 24 hours prior to the event. To join the online program\,
  participants will need access to the internet and the ability to listen a
 nd talk with the artist (camera and microphone) with their computer\, tabl
 et\, or phone.\n\nThis virtual workshop is part of RENEWAL\, a series of c
 ommunity projects and programs that Sto Len has developed as the City of A
 lexandria Public Art Program's first artist in residence at AlexRenew. \n\
 nRENEWAL aims to renew our relationship to local water by providing an opp
 ortunity for the public to engage with waterfront sites in new ways that b
 oth raise awareness and engagement around the city's water\, especially ar
 eas connected to the future location of AlexRenew's RiverRenew tunnel proj
 ect.\n\nFor more information about Sto Len and RENEWAL visit www.alexandri
