Circular Weaving With Sarah May

Thursday, October 8th | 6:30pm | Our Lady of the Snows | $10

Using the concept of mandalas, we will create circular weaving’s inspired by color schemes from nature. We will be using a wide range of yarns with varying colors and textures, driftwood, and found tree branches. Students are encouraged to bring any yarn they wish to use. Mandalas are used in some spiritual traditions for meditation or for marking a spiritual space.

Sarah May (she/hers) is a biracial Indigenous Salvadoran American, artist, writer, curator, facilitator, and advocate based out of Salt Lake City, Utah. Sarah creates work exploring the intricacy of narrative through imagery and text reflecting on the collective human experience using cyanotype, film photography, retablo ofrendas, and her own writing. Her current work and process reflect her journey exploring identity as being cyclical and evolving, the links personal ancestry manifests in prosperity, embracing Indigeneity, and the idea of destiny and healing as intertwined.

This is an in-person event an all social distancing guidelines will be followed. Please arrive with a mask on.
