Program Description

Event Details

“Kente” refers to a textile originating in Southern Ghana made of handwoven strips of silk and cotton fabric. They were believed to have originated with the Asante tribes in West Africa.

Inspired by these colorful fabrics and in honor of Black History Month, we will create unique paper weavings using Kente design papers embellished with handmade paper beads. The finished weavings can be framed or laminated as placemats.

Come join us for this simple yet beautiful craft, led by instructor Barbara Sax.

This workshop is open to Livingston Library cardholders 18 and up with registration; space is limited.

It is made possible with the support of The Friends of the Livingston Public Library.
