About the Event
FREE | ALL AGES* | NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED
(Re)Weaving is a workshop that intends to revive and promote the art practice of weaving, but with modern methods using found and discarded materials. Led by artist Norwin Anne, participants will learn how to weave a new textile and create their own tapestry with scrap fabrics on a handmade loom.
Join Norwin and our community in exploring the art practice of weaving. This activity, in connection to Patrick's October theme “TEKA LANG”, will be a mindful creative exercise that also prompts participants to reflect on how textiles / clothing are made to encourage a slow and conscious fashion mindset.
All materials will be provided. Participants can bring additional scrap fabric and wood/wood frame if they have some lying around at home!
*Under 12 need to accompanied by an adult.
