Everything Emily Larned makes feels like a labor of love and respect, often for lesser-known women's histories and cultures of making. This recent publication is a pleasure to read and explore, with its multiple fold out pages. From the publisher: 

Circles in the Dirt. Mapmaking and Life Diagrams. Contemporary Ritual. Aesthetics and Sources. Learning to Pay Attention. Visionary Art. 

In addition to teaching studio skills such as papermaking, printmaking, and book arts, Women’s Studio Workshop (WSW) has offered workshops that are more experimental, personal, conceptual, or exploratory in nature, rooted in self-observation, inquiry, listening, embodiment, performance, study, and dreams. Here are a few in their original form as they were published in WSW newsletters and Summer Art Institute catalogs from 1983–1999.

Efemmera Reissue No. 8: Workshopping at WSW was created by Emily Larned as part of her exhibition Workshopping, installed at Women’s Studio Workshop from October 3, 2025 – January 23, 2026, Rosendale, NY, curated by WSW archivist Faythe Levine.
