âïžđSpace Camp 2025đâïž
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-mĂąchĂ© 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
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
w/Caresh
Friday, August 15, 2025
1-4 PM
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.
Backyard Cyanotypes
Create a unique print that has been kissed by the sun! In this workshop you will get to experiment with cyanotype, a photography process from 100 years ago thatâs still popular today! Participants will draw on the acetate with graffiti markers.

Endless Day at LGTripp Gallery
Just 8 blocks away from Space 1026 in Old City, Miriam Singer is showing all of her new drawings on the white walls of LGTripp Gallery this month ! Go see it, it will blow your mindÂ
Artist Reception is on Saturday, September 6, from 5-7pm.
show runs from September 5-October 11
47 N 2nd St Philadelphia, PA
Gallery Hours:Â Wednesday, 12-5 pm, Thursday-Saturday 11-6pm
Endless Day features drawings (2012 -2014) that look perceptually at multiple locations in Philadelphia and are then worked through memory, eventually becoming a fictional cityscape created with a playful approach.  Singer describes noise and time through a stacking of shapes, color, and repetitive patterns. Squares provide the basic measurement of this imagined urban landscape in which a finished and unfinished moment in time coexist on the same field.
