WORKSHOP | $30 | ALL AGES | Join us for a beginners workshop on Janyak, Armenian needlelace. Proceeds will be going to the Artsakh fund, particularly as they launch the Marash Embroidery training program. Like many of the Artsakh Fund’s initiatives, this program was created to empower displaced women in Artsakh with practical skills and an opportunity to materially reconnect with their culture. Created with simply a needle and thread, Janyak has been preserved by many generations of Armenians even through separation and displacement. Come learn basic stitches and principles of this ancestral craft, and leave with an adorned handkerchief and material to continue practicing. All are welcome, no experience necessary; new and returning stitchers encouraged to attend!
COVID-19 vaccinations are highly recommended to attend events at Junior High. Learn more here.
This event will be indoors.
