Women in Hebron: Tatreez Workshop
"A vital introductory evening on Palestinian embroidery and its relationship to resistance, with a talk and workshop on tatreez techniques and their importance from fair trade co-op founder Nawal Slemiah. Each tatreez stitch interweaves the maker’s life with biographical glyphs and cultural motifs, creating an act of historical preservation in the current climate of erasure."

Join us for Tatreez Workshop with Nawal, an evening dedicated to the rich heritage, art, and politics of traditional Palestinian embroidery. The event begins with a talk by Nawal, who will share first-hand insight into the work of the cooperative, daily life in occupied Palestine, and the recent upsurge in settler violence. Following the talk, Nawal will lead a live demonstration and interactive workshop, guiding participants through traditional Tatreez stitching techniques. Throughout the evening, attendees will also have the opportunity to view and purchase authentic handcrafted Tatreez embroidery pieces.
