Join artists and educators Pearl Van Geest and Tammy Ratcliff for a community banner-making workshop! Learn about the history and cultural significance of the banners within the exhibition Creative Dissent, and share your own community story, memory, statement or idea by creating a textile banner ready to hang or to march with. Focusing on art and social change, the workshop will highlight a range of simple, hands-on techniques like painting, printmaking, and heat appliqué that be used to build your own banner. This workshop is designed for teens and adults, though all ages are welcome with a caregiver to support making. No sewing skills necessary; all materials are provided. Registration is required as space is limited.
