☁️🌞Space Camp 2025🌞☁️

We are excited to announce that we will be hosting Space Camp during August 15-17 2025 at Space1026!

Space Camp 2025

We have lined up ten workshops designed to guide exploration and creativity in a low-pressure environment, using the tools and skills available at Space 1026. Come and ponder the clouds, wheatpaste a mural, or build the papier-mâché sculpture you want to see in the world. Perhaps you would prefer to sew your dance-worthy booty shorts, with your name on the tush? We have that! Get intimate with some glue and glitter through hands-on collage, or design and print your first 8-page zine, or try screen printing with ferrous paste onto naturally dyed canvas. There’s even cyanotype printing and block printing on the menu. Space Camp is a great way to get in the door and explore new art-making techniques alongside new friends. And it’s a great way to get to know Space itself!


Organized Cloud Watching
w/ Al and Monica 
Friday, August 15, 2025
10 AM-12 PM
Join us for a calming, group cloud-watching workshop that blends the simple joy of observing the sky (and minds) with guided mindfulness practices.
We will ground ourselves with mindful presence led by certified meditation instructor Al San Valentin, then engage in cloud watching with Monica Fanya, followed by art making inspired by the ever-changing sky.

Perfect for anyone seeking a fresh perspective. No prior meditation or cloud watching experience needed. Participants are encouraged to bring a cushion for accessibility and comfort.

 

PRINT & REPEAT W/ JACKIE
Friday, August 15, 2025
10 AM-12 PM

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to design and carve your own motif on a block to create a repeating all-over pattern. Explore how repeat patterns work through tiling and rotating, along with the balance of positive and negative space.

You’ll leave with a hand-carved block (yours to keep!), a collection of prints showcasing your custom pattern, and the foundational skills to keep printing at home.

Solid as a Rock! Natural Dye and Iron Paste Screenprinting

Dive into the curious cosmos of natural dyes! The natural world around us is overflowing with plant life just waiting to be transformed into new hues and patterns. Join us for a workshop where you’ll learn the technique of printing with iron paste (yes, iron!) and pattern-making with your own handmade silkscreen onto naturally dyed canvas. Watch the earth colors transform as the iron paste interacts, creating your own unique tones and transitions.

This workshop will equip you with everything needed to continue this creative journey: your very own custom-printed bag, a blank bag for future practice, the handmade silkscreen you created, a tried-and-true recipe for iron paste, and a collection of natural dye recipes to explore.Workshops require no experience or particular skill, and all materials are included with the registration fee.

Participants will learn how to design and cut stencils, create large scale layered collage imagery, and use wheatpaste to install their work on a collaborative 8’x24’ mural surface. Perfect for artists of all levels, this low pressure session encourages experimentation and creative expression in public art.
