Across Our Queer Bodies: A Sash Decorating Textile Workshop to Celebrate Pride

Celebrate Pride by joining queer interdisciplinary artist Sarah Wong in a textile workshop that explores pageant sashes as wearable objects of pride that reflect both movements of resistance and expressions of fantastical glamour. Each participant will be given a pre-sewn sash and materials to decorate it. They will also be guided through a brainstorming session to conjure imagery and language to inspire their crafting. Facilitated from an embodied approach, participants will be encouraged to craft as a form of care, and to reflect on the ways their bodies can act as a canvas for expressions of queer multiplicity.

No sewing or textile experience required. All materials will be provided, but guests are welcome to bring their own personal objects and materials (pins, patches, etc.) that they may want to include in their sash decorating.
