“They could heal and they could curse; they could capture history and affect the future; they could transform pain to celebration”

Inspired by the words of photographer and documentarian, Roland Freeman, this workshop will explore the power and universality of quilts and how this traditional craft translates across time and communities to capture history and affect the future.

Through hands-on studio instruction, art making, and close looking conversations in the galleries, participating teachers will respond to the major themes in the Of Salt and Spirit: Black Quilters of the American South exhibition.

This free, full day CEU workshop worth 0.6 CEUs is open to the first 25 K-12 public, private, or homeschool current educators to register. Refreshments, lunch, and CEU’s are provided.
