Hen Institute will host ‘Ase,’ an art making workshop inspired by the symbolism of the hen in African Yoruba cosmology.

Hen Institute is a public art project sponsored by the Raleigh Arts Commission as part of SEEK Raleigh. It is composed of a mobile chicken coop and classroom inhabited by egg laying chickens. Hen Institute invites artists and community members to use hens as a curatorial framework to create artistic, community-based, and educational programs.
