Rock Weaving Circle with Kelly O’Neill
Join exhibiting artist Kelly O’Neill for a contemplative, hands-on workshop exploring the ancient technique of looping. Thought to be one of the earliest known textile methods, looping has been used throughout human history to create netting, cloth, and basketry.
Participants will learn a simple looping technique and spend time weaving on a chosen rock or stone, creating a unique object that brings together the hard and soft, the natural and the handmade.
As stone and fibre are brought together, a space for holding and tending memory, loss, dreams, and intention emerges. Through this act of making, participants are invited to connect with both personal and collective histories while becoming grounded in the present moment.
