The Annie Louise Wilkerson, MD Nature Preserve Park in Raleigh is hosting a workshop on the evening of September 9 for participants aged 16 and older, where natural materials from the environment will be used as art supplies.
According to the event listing on the City of Raleigh’s, the three-hour experience will have attendees forage for materials like branches, grasses, and twigs, which will then be used to create unique wooden frames. The frames incorporate yarn to establish the warp of the weave, while the assortment of gathered items will form the artistic weft, giving each piece a distinctive touch directly from the hands of its maker. The hands lead the way to a personalized creation.
The workshop offers urban residents an opportunity to engage with nature and create handmade tapestries. Participation costs $15, providing an evening of creativity and connection with the natural environment…
