Learn how to bring new meanings to bear on a nontraditional textile such as photographs by using needle, thread, and simple stitches. Age: 18+ Date: Saturday November 16 Time: 1:30 - 4:30 pm Cost: M $40 and NM $45 Instructor: Kate Jackson Kate Jackson will demonstrate how embroidery can be used as a form of drawing on photographs. In her own practice, Kate laboriously embroiders perishable materials, such as paper towels and breakfast cereal, to investigate what it means to give love, time, and attention to what may soon expire. She will demonstrate how to bring new meanings to bear on a nontraditional textile such as photographs by using needle, thread, and simple embroidery stitches to embellish a photograph of your choice. All materials are provided but participants are encouraged to bring their own photographs and embroidery supplies if they wish. Some prior experience with embroidery is helpful – but not necessary. When attending any of our public programs please consider bringing non-perishable food and hygiene products to donate to the Burlington Food Bank. Like so many communities, Burlington has seen an alarming 20% increase in the need for assistance with groceries over the last year. We are collecting community contributions to support the food bank’s efforts in meeting the growing demand for food security.

She is currently Faculty at Sheridan College in the Craft & Design program, the Visual & Creative Arts Program and the Art Fundamentals Program.
