Monday July 14 * 6-10pm * $10-20 * RSVP

Come celebrate the release of Mt Plantry Zine Volume 1 at Mt Plantry-fest on Monday, July 14! This science-fair style event will feature multiple interactive stations where you can learn how to:

-Make pinhole cameras and take photographs using them

-Develop film and prints using coffee and wine

-Develop motion picture film with sustainable developer made using local invasive plants

-Create chemograms (photographic prints without a camera)

All methods are featured in Mt Plantry Zine Volume 1, available for purchase at the festival. Art from the zine and from collective members will also be on display.

No experience in photography or film development is necessary!

Festivities start at 6pm and run until 10pm. Come for a bit or come for the whole night! We’ll end the night with a movie screening of Super 8 film processed in plants at the event! It will be an homage to the original Rhizome event where this collective first formed.

Entry is $10-20 sliding scale, with any proceeds over $10 going to DC Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid.
