🧵Unbreakable Threads is a welcoming series of free monthly events where threads, fabric and yarn become storytellers of our unique experiences in life. Through weaving, we bring together stories, migrant voices, and traditions from across Europe. Led by talented Polish artist Magdalena Jasiak, each session invites you to connect through creativity, community, and craft 🧶 Together we will learn the art of weaving, from constructing our own simple loom to specialist techniques.
1️⃣During this first session of the series, we invite you to start the journey with us by creating simple looms. You don’t need experience, just a curious attitude and openness to make mistakes. After all, art is a process!
🍩☕We will chat, get to know each other, share our hopes for this series and snack on some tasty Polish donuts while learning how to create a canvas for our future art. If you are not convinced by the content of the session, just come along for a chat and company - participation is not required.
🎟️Book your free ticket!🎟️
We welcome all Poles, Romanians, and anyone with Eastern European roots. All language abilities are welcome as group co-learning is encouraged. Materials, instructions and refreshments provided.
This event is for adults. If childcare is a challenge, please reach out in advance of the event to discuss how we can support you.
📜// We decided to group the Slavic countries, the Baltics, Balkans and Caucasus under a broader Eastern European term due to their shared history, migration experiences and cultural ties. While we distinguish and appreciate each individual culture and traditions of these countries, it’s impossible to ignore the past impact on our national identities. We would like to invite you to join us in a process of redefining this term and actively rejecting its obsolete stereotypes linked to the past. Let’s celebrate and grow together our rich cultural heritage!
