Tatreez Workshop: Stitching History, Identity, and Resistance
Join us for a beginner-friendly tatreez workshop, where we’ll explore the powerful tradition of Palestinian embroidery as a living form of art, language, and resistance.

We’ll begin with a conversation on the history of tatreez: from its ancestral roots to its role in contemporary Palestinian movements and storytelling. Together, we’ll reflect on how embroidery is more than craft: it’s a way to carry memory, mark place, and express identity under occupation and in diaspora.

Participants will then learn the basics of tatreez using aida fabric and beginner-friendly motifs that will be provided. Whether you’ve never threaded a needle or you’re returning to the practice, this workshop is a space to connect, reflect, and stitch in community.

No prior experience needed, come learn for the first time or bring something you are working on to stitch in community
