Found Poems Along the Rio Grande - Workshop
Saturday June 6th, 2pm-4pm at Alpaca
Sign up here by June 1st
Join alma valdez-garcia and imogen smith at Alpaca Gallery for an afternoon of group reading, writing, and weaving on Saturday, June 6 from 2-4pm.
Taking a selection of poems from Etel Adnan, Jimmy Santiago Baca, Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge, CAConrad, Dolores Dorante, June Jordan, NH Pritchard, Daisy Zamora as found materials, alongside our own writing & items foraged along the Rio Grande, each person will leave with both a new weaving and poem, made on a loom with materials foraged along the Rio Grande.
In cutting up and rearranging words from other thinkers (alongside our own), our hope is that the process will offer up new possibilities of speaking towards our collective histories, dreams, and often overlapping forms of witnessing.
Bring along items to add to your weaving (fabric, plants, poems, receipts, etc.) Some willingness required.
$20, no one turned away. Light snacks and drinks will be provided.
Kn95 masks required and provided. We ask that you mask unless physically unable to do so to make the space accessible for disabled and chronically ill attendees.
Follow up email with payment information and any further details about the workshop will be sent to registrants by June 1.

Declarations of Incongruence
July 2 - 31, 2026 at Fourteenfifteen Gallery
Curated by Aaron Wilder
Opening reception: Friday July 3rd, 6-9pm
Closing reception: Friday July 31, 6-9pm
Open Hours: TBA
At a time of commemorations of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Declarations of Incongruence draws attention to the document’s covert normalization of exclusion and exploitation. Despite 250 years of claimed progress, expanded inclusion, and justice for all, the Declaration’s true legacy continues in the erosion and erasure of cultures, identities, rights, and statuses not only at the federal level, but also perpetuated by state, county, and municipal governments. Curated by Aaron Wilder, this exhibition features artistic declarations that challenge, draw attention to, refuse, and embody resilience despite the perpetuation of incongruence between America’s founding mythology and historic, contemporary, and future realities.
A Declaration is an explicit expression of feeling or commitment, implying boldness and clarity. It doesn’t just describe reality, it attempts to create one by shaping perception, asserting a claimed truth with conviction and authority, and seeking to initiate action. An Incongruence is the state of being unsuitable, inconsistent, or not fitting together properly, often describing a lack of harmony between ideas, feelings, or actions. It indicates a contradiction, such as a mismatch between words and behavior, or a conflict between an ideal self and actual experience.
