B727W25 Saori Weaving Workshop - Multigenerational, Friday, December 12, 10 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Instructor: Chiaki O'Brien
Skill level: ALL

Founded in Japan in 1968, Saori weaving is contemporary, free-style weaving without restrictions about what or how to weave. It emphasizes exploration, group learning, and self-expression, recognizing the difference between machines and people. In the process of creating, the maker identifies their true self. You will be guided in the basic steps to get you started, but the final form of your project will be a collaboration between you and your weaving. Your Saori loom will be prepared for you in advance, so you can begin weaving right away. All materials are provided, but if you have materials you'd like to incorporate into your project (yarn, strips of fabric, etc.) feel free to bring them. Price includes $20 materials fee. Students ages 9 and up may register with or without an accompanying adult.
