It aims to be a platform for artistic creation through a multidisciplinary program that seeks to create a cultural and communal experience. Fabric ends with a collective walk on the trails of the Watuppa Reservation in Fall River. This walk will be guided by local experts: Indigenous community members, biologists, chefs, and artists. We learn about the ecosystem we are part of, the dangers it faces, and the preservation efforts we can all contribute to. We conversate and understand the land as something that is not separate from us and learn about the people that always lived on it. We will visit a pollinator garden planted by local artists, Harry and Brittni Gould Harvey, and discuss how art and nature are in many ways, synonymous. A tea will be brewed with ancestral herbs of the land we walk on and sweetened by local honey, this will accompany us keep us warm and connected on our walk.
