Lisa PWE Ideas to flush out-

 Idea one

have the public share their  photos and stories about the wild edge of their pets. And those who want can also share the wild edge of their pet which mirrors somethings that they are learning about in themselves. I write by example. Poetry/ prose or Jenny can add her story about the garden newt.   After these are collected, then we have a contest. 10 best entries go into our Greeting Card Collection box of 12 ( One is Perry and One is Mochi - or Jenny's  by example). Then we sell these cards and we put the money towards our project- 100% of the profits support Project Wild Edges.


Idea two

Stone Soup


An weekend of stories that all from all points of view. Telling and retelling of other short stories that inform our values of nature and this wild edge. Best 4 presenters, as voted by the audience, gets a $ prize and tickets to our show! Food for discussions too. A practice of MC set-ups

COViD Capital

Storefront window sign in downtown cafe shows the connection that one person who loses their job due to the “ COVID-19 : Fear and Uncertainty “ has to our whole economic system.  Similar to the roots of a tree, one person’s loss of income has far reaching effects. In the diagram above, nature symbolizes our interdependence. Does our town then appear to be a dying forest effected by disease? If so, how can we nurse this system back to health?

Re-union

  I first met Jenny Hale as a fellow student in Jude Bischoff's, The Business of Art class series and we became instantly good friends and followers of Jude's. Then  a few years ago, we reunited when I was involved with Ruth Chase's Belonging Project and Jenny was involved with CHIRP's Visibility Through Art exhibit. Jenny and I, found ourselves attracted to each others work and excitedly starting conversing about collaborating on a performance art project together. We dreamed of a creative work set in nature while diving deep to mine for the many faceted issues around the planet we live on and our ever increasing needs for its resources. Fast forward. We got the grant we dreamed of from the California Humanities for All Project Grant, December 2020!  Good news and then some Holy Sh-t! Everything we touched on learning in Bischoff's classes we now are having to do for real. We just want to be artists making art! But someone has to run it as a business. So that is ...
