Craft + Chat Workshop with Greg Climer

Join artist Greg Climer for Craft + Chat at the Museum of Craft and Design, a relaxed sewing workshop where conversation and making go hand in hand.

The afternoon begins with an informal artist talk in which Greg shares how technical skills can serve as a pathway to deeper conceptual thinking, and how craft, from textiles to fashion to video, can communicate personal narratives and cultural histories.

Then participants will create their own appliqué textile collage on a tote bag while sewing, chatting, and exchanging ideas. Whether you're an experienced maker or picking up a needle for the first time, this workshop is an opportunity to slow down, make alongside others, and reflect on the stories we tell through our creations.

Inspired by works in as well as artists and designers who use craft as a storytelling medium, this workshop invites participants to gather around the table with Greg Climer for an afternoon of making, conversation, and shared creative inquiry.

All materials are provided; participants are also welcome to bring their own fabric scraps or textiles to incorporate into their piece.

Space is limited to 20 participants to foster an intimate, conversation-driven experience. Museum admission is included with your ticket.

Come stitch, share stories, and make something meaningful together.
