About The Event
Bring your mom on this special afternoon learning weaving with a master. Instructions in Spanish, the translator will also be present.
In this workshop you will learn ancient techniques of washing, carding, and dyeing wool with natural products. You will also learn the art of weaving that has been inherited from generation to generation. The Zapotec artisan Vero Mendoza will demonstrate the process she uses in the production of her textiles made on a pedal loom.
Each participant will have the opportunity to create and take home a weaving using a 12”x12” bastidor (weaving frame) and 3 skeins of handspun, naturally-dyed wool.
85$ Suggested Donation
At all workshops, you can purchase textiles or make donations to support Vero's dream of reopening her late mother's workshop and continuing to honor her memory in Teotitlan del Valle, Oaxaca, Mexico.
