*This event has been postponed until Friday, May 5*

Throughout history, woven patterns have served as an expression of identity, tribe, or social bond. FWM Artist-in-Residence Henry Taylor also views them as a metaphor for the patterns within society that both unify and divide us. Join this all-ages workshop to express an identity or sense of belonging by creating your own tartan rag rug using strips of fabric and material scraps.

Organized in conjunction with Henry Taylor: Nothing Change, Nothing Strange.
