his workshop is part of a SEEK Raleigh public art project, Ciba Punch 女拳手打糍粑. Ciba Punch 女拳手打糍粑 is a participatory performance led by the Chinese Artists and Organizers Collective (CAO). Rooted in an ethic of care, the project invites community members to join in the process of transforming steamed sticky rice into ciba (糍粑 – traditional Chinese rice cakes often enjoyed with brown sugar or other toppings) by punching the rice. In bringing the making of Ciba into public space, the artists aim to honor and reframe the traditionally feminized labor of cooking, while highlighting food as a living archive for community connection, cultural exchange, and movement building. Participants are invited to channel emotions such as rage, grief, and love into the shared labor of food-making. During the performance, “Spiritual Figures” will move through the space, offering quiet guidance through humming and breathwork, embodying the presence of queer/feminist ancestors and future selves. Audience Participation All are welcome to participate in the Ciba Punch. Sanitation gloves will be provided; however, the food produced during the performance will not be prepared under regulated food safety conditions. Consumption of the rice cakes will be at the participants’ own risk. Event Details Date: Sunday, Sept. 28 Time: 3 - 5 p.m. Location: Dorothea Dix Park – grassy field […] |

In this two-part event at River Cane Wetland Park, volunteers will help remove invasive, nonnative plant species while exploring what makes a habitat a home through poetry. From 12 noon to 1 p.m., join public artist Austen Camille for a short workshop to learn about the park as a shared home for many species and begin crafting a long-form poem inspired by the landscape. After the workshop, volunteers will continue invasive plant removal alongside Raleigh Parks staff, who will share insights about the species being removed and the native plants we’re making space for. Throughout the event, participants can pause to reflect and create short poems that connect the plants they’re working with to ideas of home. By the end, everyone will have a collection of poems to share, with the chance for their words to be featured in future artwork at River Cane Wetland Park! Register for the workshop.
