SUMMARY:History Weekend August 12-13th
DESCRIPTION:In honor of the City of Davis’s Centennial the Davis Cemetery District and Arboretum  (820 Pole Line Road) will host a special weekend of history\, story telling and art. The weekend will start with its first ever Self-Guided History and Garden Walking tour.  On August 12-13th\, guests can stroll the grounds at their own pace and take in the individual stories about the people\, art and gardens that will be posted throughout the grounds. The posts will direct the viewer to the more historic and artistic highlights that we are sure they will find fascinating. The walking tour should take approximately an hour and two hours to complete but the tour was designed to encourage visitors to spend as much time as they would like exploring. Learn about the early pioneers and trailblazing individuals that have made the city of Davis the special place it is today.  If you would like to include a story about a family member on the tour please submit 1 or 2 paragraphs and send to the attention of Kristi Dvorak at cemcod@dcn.org by August 4th. \nThe weekend will also include an opportunity for story-tellers\, budding memorial writers and more to gather at the first ever Show and Tell Event being held Saturday\, August 12th at 11:00 am.  Hosted by professional memoir writer Emma Fulenwider. Participants are encouraged to bring items of special personal significance and come prepared to show their treasure and tell the story behind it.   The weekend will end with the opening reception for artist Nicole Seiser on Sunday\, August 13th from 1-4:00pm at our onsite gallery. Her work is about capturing memories and artifacts in clay material create a story for the audience to interpret.  The Davis Cemetery District is open to the public from sunrise to sunset. Please feel to visit our website for a complete listing of activities or to schedule a hosted tour (up to 10 people) or hosted golf cart tour (limit 3 people) at www.daviscemetery.org.  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Gallery 1855 Event: Opening Reception Nicole Seisler "The Places We Built"
DESCRIPTION:Solo Exhibition of Nicole Seisler\, “The Places We Built”  \nAugust 12-August 31st  \nArtist Reception August 13th from 1-4:00pm  \nThe Places We Built is a new layer of Nicole Seisler’s ongoing project\, Hand Pressed Souvenirs\, which integrates social practice\, ceramics\, and the use of walking as an art-making tool. The project uses clay as the conceptual and material conduit for forging tangible\, intimate connections between people and the places in which they live\, work\, and travel. Nicole uses customized field kits to bring blocks of wet porcelain on walks throughout neighborhoods where participants use the malleable material to make impressions of architectural details that visually and culturally define a place. These Hand Pressed Souvenirs\, much like clay tablets of the earliest societies\, become records of particular moments in history. One side of each ceramic object shows sharp details of architecture and design while the other side retains the lines and marks of the hand that produced it. The space between people and place is literally embodied by the raw clay and\, once fired\, it is permanently solidified. The growing collection of Hand Pressed Souvenirs maps our global cities and spaces through personal connections\, stories\, and memories. \n  \nNicole’s exhibition at Gallery 1855 is a new iteration of this archival mapping process. Using the porcelain souvenirs as molds\, Nicole casts new compositions in handmade paper\, thereby forming fresh connections amongst the seven year old collection of souvenirs. This body of work serves as memories of memories\, an archive of an archive of our shared experiences of place. \n
