Familial Weaving Workshop with Noel Magathe

Maghathe's project focuses on exploring family archives to reconnect with old memories and creating new ones by weaving these moments together. This process of weaving different parts of life into one captures the interplay between memory and truth, the longing for home and the past. We will work to bring these two photographs together into a new memory.

Please bring two printed photos on 8 x 11-inch printer paper. This class welcomes all ages. Youth 16 and under should be accompanied by an adult.
