Traditionally made from leftover fabric scraps, bojagi involves piecing together textiles to create something new and meaningful.Crafts such as bojagi embody traditional matrilineal knowledge with skills passed down through making rather than through language. For Zadie Xa, the use of bojagi situates her practice within a historical lineage of craft production and honours the women in her life.All materials and tools will be provided, and participants are encouraged to bring their own fabrics from home, especially materials with personal significance or pieces they wish to reuse, as they gather and work together to explore contemporary sewing techniques and the expressive potential of cloth as a form of storytelling and connection.Registration essential. Best suited for ages 16 and over.Important note: Please register with an email address that you monitor regularly. You will receive a confirmation email prior to the program.
