Jennifer Sargent of Memphis’ Six Points Collective will lead a workshop on how to create miniature weavings on tiny looms.

The world seems intent on eliminating personal, unmeasured time. Tapestry weaving in contrast is a slow process, allowing space and time to think. I love working and thinking with my hands: I draw, make woven samples, weave scarves and indispensable to all of this is an ongoing passion for texture, pattern and color.

One of two elements is always present in my work, either story telling or the natural world (whether wild or domesticated). I then create a more abstracted sense of these ideas or experiences through the layering of pattern and color.

As an artist weaver I consider myself both a contemporary practitioner and a part of a longer continuum that is thousands of years old. This idea is both a comfort and a challenge.

All supplies are provided, just RSVP below!
