Join exhibiting artist Arielle Walker for a weaving workshop as part of PUPURITIA: Storytelling and Contemporary Textiles.

In this hands-on, two-hour session, you’ll learn the fundamentals of weaving on a mini loom – which you’ll get to take home with you. Inspired by the themes of PUPURITIA, the workshop also invites space for storytelling, shared making, and connection through textiles.

Tickets are $30 and all materials will be provided. You're welcome to bring your own textiles, fabric, or threads – anything personal you'd like to incorporate into your woven piece.
