Event Description

A conversation with innovative Black textile artists who have long been part of multi-generational networks of urban quilters. Speakers will explore how their creative journeys in textile arts overlap with their research, writing and thinking about quilt-making as a modality of cultural inheritance. How do ritual, community resilience, and memory work become part of the act of making? Audience members will be invited into an interactive conversation and hands-on activity celebrating quilting and textile arts.
