In this workshop, the participants will explore the history of a traditional art form that thrived in the African American community; quilting. It highlights the cultural significance of quilting in African culture, particularly how it helped black women to gain a sense of accomplishment & identity in 19th century America. The participants will get a glimpse of such quilting techniques & will design their own piece during the workshop.
What a lovely way to spend this late afternoon!
