ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:

Palestinian crosstitch embroidery, also known as Tatreez, is an art passed down through generations of Palestinians. This workshop will walk you through the basics of what tatreez is, resources to continue learning, the tools and basic skills needed to start. After a short presentation, we will work on a small project with the aim of finishing this during the workshop that you can take home and display proudly and share with the community.

WHEN: Saturday, April 26th from 10 AM to 12 Noon

WHERE: Open Book room #308 | 1011 S Washington Ave, Minneapolis, MN
