Many associate palm weaving with a religious holiday such as Palm Sunday during the Easter season. This workshop, led by Diyan BukoBombo, will share the ways palm weaving was used in the so-called Philippines prior to Christian colonization.
In ancient times and to this day, palm weaving is used to create sustainable items for special gatherings to daily living. Some weaving designs range from household goods, hats, mats, cooking ware, baskets, fiesta decor and more. This workshop will teach folks how to make their own palm weaving creations, and hopes to inspire a connection to their ancestors, ancestral art practices, and relationships with the earth. Please , spaces limited and will be confirmed through email. Sponsored by the Departments of Religious Studies and Asian Studies, ICC, 日本无码Arts, the Dean's Office, Sustainability, and Earth Month
