Join a pre-service and mentor teacher team for an inspiring, hands-on fiber arts experience celebrating identity, culture, and belonging through needle felting and quilting! Through photos and stories, we will share a 5th-grade legacy project in which students representing 19 cultures and multiple languages created a companion tree quilt, each adding needle-felted personal symbols to leaves surrounding a central tree. Participants will create and sew their own personal symbol into a quilt square to take home and contribute to a shared group photomontage. Together, we will make our mark through fiber arts - we look forward to creating and connecting with you!
