SUMMARY:African Cultured Expressions of the Arts
DESCRIPTION:We are providing a platform to celebrate creativity and cultural heritage through creative expression\, culture\, and society.\nAfrican Cultured Expressions of the Arts entails an in-depth knowledge of African textiles and how to create quilts and other crafts using African fabrics. \nCelebrate Juneteenth by attending our African Cultured Expressions of the Arts “Sewcial” on June 19 as we explore Ankara fabrics and African American quilts that tell stories\, document family trees\, and maintain memories of our heritage. \nThe history of quilting in Black American culture began as early as the 17th century\, with enslaved women threading\, sewing\, and quilting together patchwork blankets made with scraps of fabric – purely to keep themselves and their families warm throughout the night. Quilts preserve black history\, culture and storytelling as art. Attendees will be allowed to explore our African American History Museum exhibit\, make take-home crafts using African fabrics to harvest and register on-site for upcoming quilting workshops at John P. “Top” Greene African American Cultural Center. \nAges: AllCost: Free
