ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: 

This workshop will be presented by women coming from Lebanese villages to teach basic embroidery skills and techniques whilst sharing stories on the heritage tradition of this forgotten art. Embroidery will enable you to connect with yourself and your traditional persona. The workshop will be held on Saturday, July 6th from 11 am - 2 pm at STARCO. We welcome both beginners and intermediates.

The materials are going to be provided during the workshop.

ABOUT THE DESIGNER: 

Salim Azzam is a Lebanese fashion designer, storyteller, and illustrator. In 2016, he created his own socially-conscious brand that brings together a community’s creative skills and stories. The pieces are hand-crafted and embroidered by women from mountain villages in Lebanon. They expertly re-work threads into patterns and pictures, harnessing local talent, tales, and traditions to tell stories that are common to our culture, heritage, and humanity.
