About this Event
Craft-based activism has been used as a tool of resistance, coalition building, and even espionage! Learn from Shannon Downey—a leader in the modern craftivism movement.
She will provide an introduction to the history of craftivism and ways you can get involved in the modern movement.
Shannon will then teach you how to embroider and have you stabbing it out in no time. She guarantees you walk away feeling better than when you arrived.
PLUS! We have partnered with Even Made for this workshop and they will have a surprise demo for us! DIY and Home Improvement classes for everyone.
All Materials Provided.
Shannon is the author of Let's Move the Needle: An Activism Handbook for Artists, Crafters, Creatives, and Makers.
