Join us for a creative and empowering workshop series where craft meets activism!
Facilitated by Michaela Wetherell, director of Pink-collar Gallery and developer of craft-focused initiatives, this three-part series will explore what craftivism means and guide you in expressing yourself through stitching, sewing, and DIY protest art. You’ll create activist artworks that will also feature in the final Pride exhibition, showcased at the closing Pride event in June.
This series isn’t about learning a new skill—it’s about expressing yourself through needles and threads, experimenting with materials, and making pieces that reflect your voice and support LGBTQIA+ causes.
