About The Event

This is a workshop to support an art installation to bring awareness to the many ways that bird migration is interrupted by unmarked glass windows and buildings.


The art project  is called Bird Collisions in the Anthropocene, by artist Holly Greenberg.


The workshop involves making birds with found fabric and other materials. Artist Jackie Riffice has conducted several bird-making workshops as service projects and several more are planned in the village of Flossmoor before sending the boxes of birds to Holly’s New York studio. Jackie will make the bird bodies and the participants can create several birds.
