Celebrate Gifts From Mother Earth, an installation by Philadelphia fiber artist Betty Leacraft.

The installation documents her project that brought together community members to share personal stories about folk remedies, raise awareness of shared cultural connections, and create art. Bringing together her interest in traditional gardening with her artistry in textiles, Betty conducted a series of workshops this past spring with members of the community and young students from The Spring School Of The Arts.

A wonderful group of photos taken by An Xiao.

The Ai Weiwei installation was such a success that perceved dangers to health has been closed to direct participation.  That is a great loss as one can see from the photos An took.
