Interwoven Home: A Community Weaving Project

What does “home” mean to you? Join other Queens residents this summer to create a community collaborative weaving project created from pieces of fabric and our own definition of home. You can participate in this program by attending the in-person workshop at Socrates Sculpture Park facilitated by Queens’ artist Antonia Perez. Join us to share your memories and ideas of home and add your story to the community weaving project, and feel free to bring any small token that reminds you of home. The final piece will be on public display at Queens Public Library branches after its completion!

This program is inspired by highly personal textiles and quilts on view at the American Folk Art Museum, and in collaboration with Queens Memory Project at Queens Public Library, and Socrates Sculpture Park.

Register here. Registration is not required, but space is limited.
