Magic Threads: Mindful Embroidery + Aromatherapy & Healing Drinks

Step into a soulful evening of storytelling through thread, led by two Colombian artists using embroidery as a tool for healing, connection, and cultural memory.

🧵✨ Join:

• Alejandra Mejía Torres — interdisciplinary artist, educator, and bead embroidery teacher at the Textile Arts Center in NYC. Alejandra merges craft, art therapy, and identity in her work, empowering women to stitch their stories with purpose and presence.
• Valentina Cadena — Colombian architect and artist whose passion for embroidery was passed down by her grandmother. Her practice honors generational wisdom and the power of handmade traditions.

Together, they create a safe, intentional space to slow down, learn, and reconnect—with ourselves, our roots, and our creativity.

• 🪡 A hands-on embroidery workshop to learn foundational stitches and begin a healing-inspired project (all materials included)
• 🌺 A moment of aromatherapy and mindfulness to ground you in the present
• 🍵 A signature healing drink from Abracadabra Magic Diner—your choice of ceremonial cacao, creamy matcha, or a seasonal elixir, served in one of Brooklyn’s most magical spots

You’re receiving more than a class—you’re stepping into a ritual of care, heritage, and creative resistance.We all have a story to tell—and this one is stitched together through memory, community, and intention.

All levels welcome. Come as you are—leave with new skills, calm energy, and something handmade from the heart.
