Dreamseeds: Dreaming in Times of Chaos

Join BMA Lexington Market Artists-in-Residence, Dreamseeds, a project by Hannah Brancato and Sanahara Ama Chandra, in seeding new visions for our collective future. Visitors are invited to weave baskets from foraged ivy, co-create experimental song circles, journal, have conversation, take home a plant, and add their dreams to the growing collection of “dreamseeds.”
Meet Hannah weekly on Fridays from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. for drop-in ivy basket weaving, zine-making, and journaling, and from 3-4:30 p.m. for a Gather Together meet up for survivors of sexual and intimate partner violence.
Join Sanahara Ama Chandra on Saturdays from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. for song circles, card readings, and conversation.
