Passed & Present: A Dreamland Swap

February 9 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm EST

$60

Join us for a unique vintage swap event where stories, sustainability, and connection come together! Bring pre-loved treasures to exchange, participate in a creative mini workshop, and leave with something special. Don’t miss the chance to view the stunning limited-edition bowls from Dreamland Phase II by artist Tamirah Taylor Soloman, showcasing cultural narratives and community heritage.

About Dreamland: Dreamland delves into the intricate interplay between identity, belonging, and public space, inviting reflection on the immigrant and refugee experience.

Dreamland Phase II features six bowls by ceramicist Tamirah Taylor, reflecting BIPOC narratives of the past, present, and future. Inspired by the timeless image of a fruit bowl on a kitchen table, these pieces blend iconic landmarks, cultural fusion, and everyday scenes. Their design reimagines European Renaissance still lifes, replacing them with universal, contemporary stories that invite personal interpretation.

What to Expect:

  • Exchange high-quality, pre-loved items
  • Share the history and stories behind your items
  • Reflect on the cultural and personal histories embedded in the act of swapping
  • Take part in a custom story tag workshop where you get to personalize your own to attach to your swapped item(s)
  • View the Dreamland Phase II vessel exhibition
  • Participate in a pop up by Zaiwar (ig: zaiwar.co)
  • Participate in a pop up by Root To Glory (ig:roottoglory)
  • Enjoy light refreshments and creative connections
  • Gifts and more!
