Create and Connect: Stitching Solidarity

Textile practices have long been spaces for political expression, storytelling and communal care. In this workshop, embroidery and patchwork become both creative materials and ways of thinking, inviting participants to work intuitively while contributing to a shared textile that reflects solidarity across borders and lived experience.

Led by Oitij-jo, this participatory session uses embroidery and patchwork as tools for reflection and dialogue. Together, participants will create a collaborative textile while exploring themes of care, migration and resistance.

No prior sewing or embroidery experience is required. Event is free and all materials will be provided, and participants are welcome to engage quietly or conversationally, according to their comfort.
