About this event
Feminist Spatial Practices will give a Paula G. Manship Endowed Lecture titled “Civic Threads: Advocating for Design Change” on Wednesday, October 14 at 4:30 p.m. in 103 Julian T. White Hall Auditorium. Feminist Spatial Practices is a global collective working to foster mutual support and collaboration through workshops, discussions, mentorship, research projects, and making events. Members of FSP cultivate alternative forms of knowledge-sharing that celebrate embodied and equitable modes of practice, building and borrowing from previous generations of radical practitioners. The collective grew out of an archival project, feministspatialpractices.com, which celebrates the different feminisms that have existed across geographies and time, spotlighting practices often overlooked by traditional disciplinary archives. Drawing inspiration from the collective’s interactive online archive, students participating in the Civic Threads workshop examined and reflected on local histories and present initiatives in Baton Rouge, identifying gaps in civic infrastructure to imagine new approaches to today’s environmental and social challenges. Their proposals took the form of patchwork manifestos, building off the rich tradition of acadian textile craft in Louisiana.
