Art and Joy: Story Cloths

  • The Women's Initiative 1101 East High Street Charlottesville, VA, 22902 United States (map)

Mondays, September 9–30

Join us in cultivating a space of creative expression with other Latinas in your community while exploring the healing power of cultural connection and visual story telling through textiles. Using fabric scraps, hand-sewing, and patchwork techniques inspired by Chilean arpilleras and traditional Mexican embroidery, each participant will work towards creating a visual story cloth centered on resilience and healing. No prior sewing experience is necessary; we will support in learning foundational sewing stitches. *This group will be run in a bilingual format in Spanish and English. Led by Alma Molina and Karina Monroy, Clinical Art Therapy Intern.

To register for the group, call 434.328.1800, email bienestar@thewomensinitiative.org.
