# Event Details - **Event Name**: Visiting Artist Workshop: Tapestry & Painted Warp with Thương Hoài Trần - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 05:00 pm (-05:00) - **Event Description**: Monday through Thursday: September 14 -17, 2-5 pm Join fiber artist Thương Hoài Trần for an immersive four-day workshop exploring the intersection of color, structure, and textile craft. This hands-on intensive is designed to welcome weavers of all experience levels — from curious beginners to practicing artists looking to deepen their practice. Building Your Own Loom One of the most empowering aspects of this workshop is learning that you don't need expensive or specialized equipment to begin weaving. Participants will learn how to construct their own functional tapestry loom from readily available, everyday materials. Thương will guide you through the process step by step, demystifying the tools of the trade and making the craft genuinely accessible — because weaving should never be gatekept by gear. Painted Warp Techniques At the heart of this workshop is the art of the painted warp — a technique in which yarn is dyed before it is woven, creating unpredictable, painterly color gradations that emerge organically through the weaving process. Participants will learn to dye their own warp using a cold water process dye method, exploring color mixing, resist techniques, and how intentional (or intuitive) dye placement translates into finished cloth. About the instructor: Thương Hoài Trần was born in Tây Ninh, Vietnam and raised in Emporia, Kansas. Hoài Trần holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Emporia State University and a Master of Fine Arts from the School of Art Institute of Chicago.
