SUMMARY:Like Water: A Participatory Walk from the Edge of the City to the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by Leanne Betasamosake Simpson\, Bruce Lee\, and the Hong Kong protestors\, join artist A. Laurie Palmer\, in collaboration with Cid Pearlman and Ilia Dolgov to practice moving together as a body of water\, walking west from the Institute of the Arts and Sciences\, along Delaware Ave.\, to the ocean. On the way\, participants will imagine and explore how this particular stretch of land has been inhabited\, stewarded\, enclosed\, owned\, and used—and how these histories shape contemporary borders between public and private space. From thousands of years of stewardship by the Awaswas-speaking Uypi people\, through seizure by missionaries for pasturage\, division into private ranchos for Spanish settlers and then parceled into lots for European/American settlers\, to more recent developments including the creation of natural reserves\, the land carries the effects of these experiences and relationships into the present. \nHow might a collective experiment in moving “like water” help one discover surprising ways to relate with a place\, a social and environmental context\, and a particular historical moment? \nThis event is presented as part of as part of the Intersections of Climate Change series\, and is organized with the Friedlaender Lab\, in conjunction with the Weather and the Whale exhibition\, at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences.\n \n—\nEVENT AGENDA\npart 1. 2:00 pm – 2:30 pm\nPanetta Street to Natural Bridges St \npart 2. 2:30 pm – 3:00 pm\nNatural Bridges to the Homeless Garden Project \npart 3. 3:30 pm – 4:00 pm\nHomeless Garden Project to Younger Lagoon\n—\nFULL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS\nIntersections of Climate Change series:\n– Thu.\, Jan. 29\, 6:00 p.m.: Pesticide Impacts in and around Monterey Bay\n– Thu.\, Feb. 5\, 6:00 p.m.: Climate Justice and the Moss Landing Battery Fire\n– Wed.\, Feb. 11\, 6:00 p.m.: The California Firefighter Cancer Research Study with Shehnaz Hussain and Fire Captain Jamie Gabriel\n– Thu.\, Feb. 26\, 6:00 p.m.: The Whale Liberation Front—An electroacoustic performance and artist talk\n– Wed.\, March 4\, 6:00 p.m.: Unexpected Returns: The Historic Entanglements of Fire\, Settlement\, and Stewardship in the Santa Cruz Mountains\n—\nADMISSION\n– FREE and open to the public\n– Attend in person at the intersection of Delaware Avenue and Natural Bridges Drive.\n– This walk will be fully accessible up until the overlook of the Lagoon\, at which point a technically accessible\, but possibly slippery\, trail (depending on the weather) meanders down hill. Participants are welcome to stay at the overlook\, or go down to the water’s level in the company of a guide.\n—\nPARKING\n– The entrance to the Institute of the Arts and Sciences is on Delaware St. and has an accessibility ramp.\n– Free self-parking is available on Panetta Ave. and High Rd.\, immediately adjacent to the building.\n– Accessible parking is on High Rd.\n—\nThis program is open to all members of the public consistent with state and federal law.
