SUMMARY:Life Tapestries - Weaving Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Life Tapestries is an interactive workshop series that combines personal storytelling and hands-on crafting. Participants will explore their familial ties to New Jersey through two intertwined mediums; quilting and weaving. This three-part workshop is for artists of all ages interested in drawing connections between cartography\, creative writing\, and fiber arts. Students will create a personal cartographic map of key moments\, relationships\, and places. Then\, translating that map into a woven tapestry\, participants will reflect on the paths they’ve traveled and the connections they’ve formed along the way. This unique process invites self-reflection and community building while teaching basic weaving principles and techniques. \n  \nThis class will meet on three consecutive Saturdays: February 1\, 8\, and 15 from 1pm-3:30pm. Taught by fiber artist Donelle Wedderburn. These workshops will be held at 35 Cleveland Street\, Orange\, NJ. Please register for this class here.
