2023 Summer Solstice Oasis in The Woods:

An Art & Wellness Festival

Friday, June 16, 2023, 6-9 pm

“2023 Summer Solstice: The Land” is a living creative, and cultural experiment with sustainable practice at its center. It incubates the artist’s and community’s personal and collective transformation.

 

For one week, June 12-16, 2023, artists of diverse disciplines and ages will converge at Juniper’s Garden for a week-long residency. Their collective goal is to build generational bridges while working with ideas and materials that emanate from the land to create installations that answer the question,

“How we will rebuild our communities to be stronger and recreate sustainable places to live.” Importantly, this conversation addresses environmental justice's physical and psychological dimensions and impact. 

The residency will occur in Maryland’s Prince Georges County, the Southernmost region, and its remaining rural tier.

On Friday, June 16, 2023, 6-9 pm, as part of the 2023 Summer Solstice Oasis in The Woods: An Art & Wellness Festival at Juniper’s Garden, the artists will host an open house where they will be present to offer free and open to the public gallery walks. In addition, they will be contributing stories of their experiences with the South County ecosystem and the process by which their installations came together.
