Felicia Rice & Theresa Whitehill: Heavy Lifting, Listening Tour

August 5, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Heavy Lifting

The Heavy Lifting Listening Tour and Exhibit is coming to the Pacific Textile Arts Gallery in Fort Bragg. The exhibit will open on First Friday, August 4, 2023 from 5–7 pm. The exhibit runs from Friday, August 4 through Thursday, August 31. The Heavy Lifting Listening Tour event will take place on Saturday, August 5 from 10 am–12 pm. To contact the venue, email pacifictextilearts@mcn.org.

The Heavy Lifting Listening Tour aspires to offer opportunities for healing, and dreaming, through dialogue. An introduction to the project opens a display of the artists’ book and of the experimental film, On Heavy Lifting, that accompanies the book. This is followed by a conversation between poet Theresa Whitehill  and the audience in which she alternates reading her poems with an invitation for audience members to read their own work or share brief stories in response to the themes and material.

The Listening Tour kicked off in March 2023 in Caspar and will occur monthly in communities impacted by the wildfires throughout northern California in 2023.
