Join us today on a journey of healing and solidarity, as we explore the intricate threads of Palestinian resilience. Through mindful stitching exercises and reflections, we'll weave together stories of hope and support.
Tracing back to the Canaan era, Palestinian Tatreez (Embroidery) is more than just a craft - it's a tangible piece of our cultural heritage and history, weaving together narratives of resistance, connection, and preservation. From pillowcases to the traditional thob (Palestinian gown), Tatreez stitches carry the essence of Palestine.
Amidst the daily struggles that we are witnessing in Palestine, Resilient Cross Stitch emerges as a beacon of commemoration and connection.
In the wake of the tragedy of continuous occupation and genocide happening in Gaza, our workshop stands as a space to honor the Palestinian people and their traditions. Through the timeless craft of cross stitch, we invite you to gather, share, and transform grief into powerful expressions of resilience.
Let's create, learn, and stand together in solidarity with Palestine.
Together, let's stitch a future filled with resilience, resistance, and hope.
