\n \n\nThis activity is in conjunction with the exhibition In Hand: Contemp
orary Material Engagements with the Built World. Nicole Seisler’s public ar
t project invites participants to join together on local walks with blocks
of wet porcelain in-hand\, which they use to make impressions of architectu
ral details that visually and culturally define a place. The raw clay acts
as a conduit that heightens our individual sensation of touch and physical
connection to our surroundings. The resulting ‘souvenirs’ become records o
f particular moments in time and place. One side of each ceramic object cap
tures texture and pattern lifted from surfaces nearby\, while the other sid
e retains lines and marks from the hand that once held it. \n\nParticipants
are invited to make an Athens souvenir by joining this community walk on C
ourt Street. As the Athens collection of Hand Pressed Souvenirs grows throu
ghout the duration of the exhibition\, so too does the evidence of a commun
ity’s relationship to place. \n\nParticipants should meet at the Ohio Univ
ersity Alumni Gateway\, on the corner of Court Street and Union Street.\n\n
Paid\, parallel parking is available along Court Street\, Union Street\, an
d Washington Street. There is also a paid parking garage (Athens City Garag
e) on Washington Street. Ohio University's parking lots are also free on Sa
turdays. Please give yourself enough time to find parking and walk to the m
eeting place (Ohio University Alumni Gateway). \n\n\nWalk Leaders: Len Loom
