Free Circling Workshop: How to Talk About Your Art

This year, speak confidently about your art and creative practice.

​Join us for a free, two-part workshop filled with guided reflections, exercises, and tips on speaking and writing with clarity and specificity about your work presented in partnership with our friends at Paradice Palase.

​Session one will cover speaking about your art in an audience-aware, multi-sensory, and grounded way as you prepare for studio visits, exhibition tours, or artist talks.

​In session two, learn how to hone descriptions of your work for written purposes: communicate clearly and with a goal in mind as you draft grant applications, artist statements, and more.

Attend one session, or both — each can stand alone, and we will share the recording with all who subscribe after the workshop.

Part 1 : Wednesday, January 21 at 6pm ET | https://luma.com/t213if3v

Art in the Garden 2025

We had a great third season of Art in the Garden at Patchen Community Square this season. I love sharing the space and the chance to make something together with my neighbors and all who stop by the garden during our sessions. I experimented with providing more specific projects / prompts for each week, and liked that approach. Here are some photos of what this year looked like — stay tuned for season four coming in 2026!

🍅 Art in the Garden is a series of free, all-ages, drop-in artmaking workshops created and hosted by garden member and artist Lynnette Therese Sauer at Patchen Community Square in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn.

Recap: Art in the Garden 2024

It was a great second season of Art in the Garden at Patchen Community Square! Here are some photos from this year’s free, all-ages, drop-in artmaking workshops I facilitated at my neighborhood garden where I’ve been a member since 2018.
