Preparing for Wind Dreams at Fossil Beach with Nancy Lupo @nancy_lupa and The Opening @theopeningplayactions. 

Over the next two weeks, 12 fifth graders from Richmond’s Reid Elementary will travel to Fossil Beach at Westmoreland State Park for several days of open-ended play, filmmaking, and fossil hunting. While there, they will encounter a set of metal detectors and may use them to uncover a series of mysterious words and objects.

Following the trips, students will revisit the video they recorded and begin reflecting on their experiences. They will first gather for a conversation with artist Nancy Lupo. On a separate day, they will meet with scientists and educators from the Science Museum of Virginia @sciencemuseumofvirginia and the Virginia Museum of Natural History @virginiamuseum to use their experience to consider the site from a deep-time perspective.

We are deeply grateful to Virginia Humanities @va_humanities , the Robins Foundation @robinsfdn, The Commonwealth Public Art Fund @cwpublicart, the Blue Sky Fund @blueskyfund, and private support for helping to make our work possible.
