One of our symposium guests is offering workshops at the MoJo!

Join us Labor Day weekend at the MoJo for this hands on workshop!

See how textile artist Tabitha Arnold uses a punch needle as an embroidery tool as you create your own small embroidery. You can keep your finished piece or contribute it to a collective tapestry that will grow over time in multiple cities across the US.

There are two opportunities to participate in this 3-hr workshop - each session is a standalone experience.

These workshops are offered in partnership with the WALS Foundation's Reuther-Pollack Labor Symposium, where Arnold is a featured presenter this year.
