Field Day with Tria Smith and Katrin Schnabel
Outdoor Sustainable Design Festival
Free & Open to the Public
Join us at Navy Pier for an interactive activity related to our upcoming exhibition on sustainability, The Myth of the Organic City, in the Design Museum of Chicago’s (DMoC) Field Day event.
Calling all sewers, doers, makers! Artist Tria Smith and fashion design professor Katrin Schnabel invite you to collaborate in making their artwork of upcycled fashion. Join us as we sort through fabrics and attach them to their art piece. We will discuss the materials we wear and use everyday, their origin, environmental impact, and how to analyze natural versus manufactured fabric.
DMoC hosts the annual Field Day festival which brings together designers, architects, environmentalists, and the community to engage in activities, workshops, and interactive installations focusing on innovative solutions for a sustainable future. The event celebrates our environment, culture, and Chicago outdoor public spaces through a design lens.
Field Day is presented as part of Art Design Chicago, a citywide collaboration initiated by the Terra Foundation for American Art that highlights the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities.
