Ancestors: A Communal Weaving Installation invites visitors to the Ancestral Lines exhibition at the Coral Springs Museum to explore the art of contemporary weaving. Central to this interactive experience is a large-format loom where participants can contribute to a weaving project, blending individual creativity into a shared tapestry of connection and heritage.
This communal installation acts as a bridge to our roots, heritage, and ancestral connections, revealing the rich symbolism embedded within patterns and designs. Each thread carries a story, weaving a tapestry that links us to the lives and legacies of those who came before us.
Learn basic and advanced weaving techniques like warping the loom, Tabby weaving, Rya knots, Interlocking, Soumak, Loop stitch, and taking the weave off the loom.
Children must be supervised by their parents or guardians.
