Vines of SCEE with WE THE WEEDS

Join WE THE WEEDS botanical arts team for a hands-on vine identification and harvesting workshop, highlighting the characteristics, uses, and lore surrounding different local and invasive vines at the Schuylkill Center. This event runs in conjunction with the creation of a woven installation artwork exploring plant migration, created by We The Weeds during their Landlab Residency this summer through fall.

Please wear sturdy shoes and protective clothing.  For youth and adults.
