(Re)turning Home: Portraits of Childhood led by FLOR KHAN is a hands-on, reflective workshop that invites participants to look to the past as a way of understanding the present. Rooted in self-reflection, this workshop asks participants to send a portrait of themselves in childhood to the facilitator one week before the workshop date.
Using cyanotype, one of the earliest photographic printing processes, and plants, participants will create botanical prints that function as both image and offering: a way to connect personal memory and the natural world. The process emphasizes slowing down, observing, and allowing meaning to emerge through making.
Reflection Questions:
What stories live in our lineages and landscapes?
How do cycles of nature mirror cycles of personal change?
What does your childhood portrait say to your current ways of being in the world
How does art-making help communicate what cannot otherwise be said through words?
(Re)turning Home: Portraits of Childhood offers an accessible entry point into cyanotype while holding space for reflection, conversation, and intuitive learning.
Please note: This workshop is on the SECOND FLOOR in NoMAA’s STUDIOS

The September title is George Saunders’ Booker Prize winning novel Lincoln in the Bardo, a moving and original father-son story featuring none other than Abraham Lincoln, as well as an unforgettable cast of supporting characters, living and dead, historical and invented.
From the Publisher: February 1862. With the Civil War less than one year old, President Lincoln’s beloved eleven-year-old son, Willie, lies gravely ill. In a matter of days, Willie dies and is laid to rest in a Georgetown cemetery. Newspapers report that a grief-stricken Lincoln returns, alone, to the crypt several times to hold his boy’s body. From that seed of historical truth, George Saunders spins an unforgettable story that breaks free of its realistic framework into a thrilling, supernatural realm, deploying a kaleidoscopic, theatrical panorama of voices—living and dead, historical and invented—to ask a timeless question: How do we live and love when we know that everything we love must end?
Don’t forget to register to join Alison Stewart along with the author and readers everywhere for a live conversation, in-person or online, on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, from 6 – 7 PM.
