About this Event


Community Education Workshops
June 4 - June 25
Locations: XIA Gallery & Cafe, Hmong Museum, and Weavers Guild of MN

RedGreen Rivers is pleased to invite you to experience HMong Hemp Weaving with Master Textile Artist Li Sawangcharoensap (Li Yang). Join us for a rare, hands-on cultural experience with Li, who is visiting from Tak, Thailand.

This intimate workshop (limited to 10–15 participants) includes:

  • Artist Talk
  • Introduction to the cultural significance of HMong hemp weaving
  • A hands-on weaving experience—take home your own woven hemp piece!

Li Yang is a master of a centuries-old art form now endangered by industrialization and globalization. Her U.S. debut celebrates HMong women as cultural bearers and offers a rare opportunity to connect across generations and continents through art, tradition, and sustainability.

Spaces are limited—reserve your spot today!
